CDC, States Reaching Out for Help Administering H1N1 Vaccine. Interested FPs Can Contact Local Health Agencies Proactively
American Family Physician, 07/27/09
Mitchell D – At a July 9 H1N1 Flu Preparedness Summit in Bethesda, Md., HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, together with Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and Education Secretary Arne Duncan, announced plans for a voluntary novel influenza vaccination program this fall. In addition to public health vaccination clinics, family physicians, obstetricians, pediatricians and internists will play a role in administering the vaccine, along with clinics in retail stores, pharmacies and workplace settings. Vaccine for the novel influenza A (H1N1) virus will be provided to physicians at no charge, as will syringes, needles, sharps containers and alcohol swabs. Meanwhile, America's Health Insurance Plans has indicated to the CDC that insurance companies will provide reimbursement for administration of the vaccine. The CDC has issued an overview to professional medical organizations that summarizes many aspects of preparing for H1N1 vaccinations. The H1N1 vaccine likely will require two doses, which could well raise issues about supply and prioritization. HHS already has released guidance for pandemic vaccine allocation.
