COVID-19 and Connect Care - Outpatient Vaccination Orders

A previous posting explained a unique order-documentation workflow used for inpatients who might meet criteria for administration of a COVID-19 vaccination during a hospital encounter.

Primary and specialty care clinics that use Connect Care as the record of care can now order and administer COVID-19 vaccinations in outpatient settings. 

Each clinic will be aware of the specific vaccine type available within the clinic. There are orders available for each of these vaccine types. The clinic workflow is the same (with the same patient informing and consenting norms) as that used for other clinic vaccinations (e.g., influenza vaccine).

Use the order search tool with "covid v" to find these new orderables.
