COVID-19 Vaccination Provider Enrollment Needed ASAP Due to Accelerated Federal Timelines
October 30, 2020
Dear Ohio Provider:
If you want to administer the COVID-19 vaccine when it becomes available, it is critically important that you enroll as soon as possible due to accelerated federal timelines. If you have ultra-cold storage capabilities (below -70 degrees Celsius) and are able to administer COVID-19 vaccines to 500 or more individuals, it is requested that you enroll by Friday, November 6. Please note that not every provider needs to have ultra-cold storage capabilities to be a COVID-19 vaccine provider.
While it is unkown exactly when the vaccine will be available, the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) must review and process applications and conduct provider training as quickly as possible to be prepared to mobilize immediately with little notice. It also is essential that they be able to identify and address any vaccine provider gaps across the state.

Working together, we can help end the COVID-19 pandemic by vaccinating Ohioans who choose to receive the vaccine when it becomes available.
