 Hello Adult Vaccine Program Partners,
The AVP vaccine request opportunity for non-COVID/non-flu vaccines is now OPEN and will remain open for 3 weeks. The last day to place an AVP vaccine request for this order cycle will be on Tuesday February 25th. Please submit your requests as soon as you are able.
AVP vaccine requests take place in the IIS. Each facility will have an order set available in the IIS containing the vaccine types prioritized on their AVP provider agreement. This is a vaccine request, not an order, and requests may be reduced to stay within the AVP’s available budget. If you do not have familiarity with placing a vaccine request or receiving vaccines in the IIS, you can review this AVP Vaccine Ordering and Receiving Guide for step by step instructions.
In order to receive an allocation of AVP vaccine, your facility’s provider agreement and accountability must be current. This includes the submission of up-to-date inventory in the IIS, and temperature log submission in Redcap, including any outstanding items. Please ensure that your facility inventory is accurate in the IIS, as current inventory can affect a site's allocation.
- If you need assistance with Redcap, you can review any of our resources around navigating temperature log submission in Redcap: Step-by-Step Guide| Video | PDF
The next AVP order request opportunity for these vaccine types will be in August, so you may request a 6-month supply of vaccine during this request window. When placing your request, please keep in mind that AVP vaccines are a limited resource in high demand. Waste should be kept below 5%, so please order intentionally with regards to what your facility can administer.
These AVP vaccines can only be administered to uninsured adults 19+ years of age. Please keep in mind that Medicare/ Medicaid are considered insurance and thus individuals with these plans do not qualify for AVP.
If you have any questions, please reach out to us at WAAdultVaccines@doh.wa.gov.
Thank you for all that you do!
 The new Vaccine Coordinator Training that has replaced the CDC's You Call the Shots (YCTS) is now available for AVP-enrolled providers. This training is comparable to the YCTS training content with the addition of Washington State Vaccine Program specifics, and covers all the important information needed to participate in Washington’s Adult Vaccine Program.
Primary and back-up vaccine coordinators must complete this annual training requirement within the current calendar year, prior to their provider agreement renewal deadline. It is also best practice to have all staff who handle and administer vaccines complete the training as well.
If you need a refresher on the new training requirement, you can view the Vaccine Coordinator training here. The slides from that training are also available for reference.
