Remember to keep this information in the VFC patient s record. You do not need to keep the screening information on hand for children in your practice who are not eligible for VFC vaccine. Again, verification by the parent of responses is not required. If you are a health care provider enrolled in the VFC Program, you will order and receive vaccine at no cost. Your State Immunization Program will keep this record on file and will refer to it each time you place an order for vaccine.
Vaccine is provided using multiple funding sources.
The document will be used to assist in apportioning your order by funding source. You will need to update and submit this information annually, and may revise it as often as necessary. The VFC program will have no impact on your present vaccine purchases for private-pay patients. As new vaccines and combinations are approved by the FDA and recommended by the ACIP, they will be added. You will be asked to place vaccine orders with your State Immunization Program to maintain at least a three month supply of vaccine.
