The information on this webpage is intended for COVID-19 Vaccine Providers

This page contains pre-registration communications previously sent out by the Immunization Program, steps to enroll in the COVID-19 Vaccination Program (CoVP), how to get critical workforce staff vaccinated and links to partner websites. We will continue to add information to this webpage as it becomes available.

Step One - Pre-registration for the intent to vaccinate

Pre-registration captures healthcare provider locations that intend to vaccinate and critical information about those locations needed to proceed to enrollment in the program. A site pre-registers by completing the survey. The survey will remain open.

COVID-19 Vaccination Program Provider Agreement and Profile. This document is shared for informational purposes so potential enrollment sites can familiarize themselves with the federal legal requirements of the COVID-19 Vaccination Program. 

Step Two - Enroll in the COVID-19 Vaccination Program (CoVP)

The Connecticut Immunization Program is following a phased approach for enrollment in the CoVP.  After you complete the pre-registration survey with your intent to administer the COVID-19 vaccine, you will receive an email invitation from the Connecticut Immunization Program to enroll in the CoVP.  When you receive this invitation will depend upon the healthcare setting and phase of response. Enrollment takes place in CT WiZ, Connecticut’s Immunization Information System (IIS).

Step Three – COVID-19 Vaccine Administration System Vaccine Ordering and Support

When COVID-19 vaccine is available, providers will order COVID-19 vaccine through VAMS or CT WiZ. Orders will be reviewed and approved by the Connecticut Immunization Program and shipped directly from the vaccine manufacturer or CDC distributor.
When vaccine is available, providers will manage their vaccine inventory; enter doses administered; enter vaccine returns and wastage; and generate reports for internal review (e.g. doses administered).
