Interim Draft COVID-19 Vaccination Plan for New Hampshire

NH is committed to a safe and effective vaccine that will protect against COVID-19. We are prepared to receive the initial batches of FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccine in mid-December 2020. The vaccine will be distributed in a phased approach and the initial allocation will be used to vaccinate at-risk health workers, residents of long-term care facilities, and first responders.

New Hampshire COVID-19 Vaccination Plan

New Hampshire COVID-19 Vaccination Plan (March 15, 2021)
In September, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced every state would be required to submit an Interim Draft COVID-19 Vaccine Plan by October 16, 2020, based on COVID-19 Vaccination Program Interim Playbook for Jurisdiction Operations provided by the CDC. NH submitted an interim plan in October 2020 as required. The plan posted here is an updated version of the plan based on current distribution plans and activities. This plan is considered a living document and will be revised as necessary as new information and guidance is known about the vaccine candidates.

COVID-19 Vaccination Provider Agreement

As additional COVID-19 vaccine becomes available for Phase 1b individuals and beyond, NH DHHS will distribute COVID-19 vaccines to provider offices, urgent care, pharmacies and other local health care facilities that have the capacity to offer vaccination to patients. To receive/administer COVID-19 vaccine, constituent products, and ancillary supplies, health care organizations that want to receive COVID-19 vaccine must enroll in the federal COVID-19 Vaccination Program coordinated through the New Hampshire Immunization Program. Enrolled COVID-19 vaccination providers must be credentialed/licensed in the jurisdiction where vaccination takes place and sign and agree to the conditions in the CDC COVID-19 Vaccination Program Provider Agreements. These conditions are detailed in the agreement itself. Note that NH DHHS will only be able to begin providing vaccine to these entities when vaccine supply allows.

In order to enroll as a COVID-19 vaccination provider, download the Provider Agreement complete the form electronically, being careful to follow the instructions, and email to [email protected].
