Documenting Vaccinations at Third-Party Clinics in VAMS
Step 1: Document Prevaccination Actions Are Complete
Roles: Clinic Administrator and Healthcare Professional
Prevaccination Actions will vary by clinic but can include things such as screening the recipient for contraindications, providing the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) Fact Sheets, and acquiring authorization, if required. In third-party clinics, clinic administrators have access to recipient PHI (protected health information).
- Click a recipient’s name in the Recipient Management table to access their recipient record.
- Click Edit Recipient Details.
- Record that the recipient has completed their Prevaccination Actions, then click Save.
Step 2: Log Vaccine Information
- On the recipient record, click the Vaccine Administration tab.
- Click Log Vaccination.
- NOTE: If the recipient is not yet eligible for vaccination based on their last date of vaccination (e.g., it is prior to their second-dose eligibility date), a pop-up window will appear notifying you that the recipient is not yet eligible for vaccination. The window will ask you if you want to vaccinate early. If you do, click Yes, vaccinate early. If not, click No, cancel.
