Attention: All Pediatric Providers
Providers should monitor the Texas Children’s Health Plan (TCHP) Provider Portal regularly for alerts and updates associated to the COVID-19 event. TCHP reserves the right to update and/or change this information without prior notice due to the evolving nature of the COVID-19 event.
Call to action: Texas Children’s Health Plan would like to inform network providers that the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) Immunization Unit is encouraging all pediatric providers to enroll in the COVID-19 Vaccine Program. This is in anticipation of the future expansion of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine’s Emergency Use Authorization to include adolescents ages 12 years old and older. Currently, the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is authorized for ages 16 years and older.
How this impacts providers: The effective date for the expansion is uncertain at this time. The DSHS Immunization Unit would like to encourage all interested pediatric providers to enroll now at EnrollTexasIZ.dshs.texas.gov. The enrollment requires facilities to complete the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) COVID-19 Vaccination Program Provider Agreement.
Next steps for providers: Interested providers should take action and register at EnrollTexasIZ.dshs.texas.gov. To ensure there are no delays in processing your enrollment for the COVID-19 Program, it is imperative that enrollment information contains the following:
Organization name;
ImmTrac2 Org code;
Primary and Backup Vaccine Coordinators names;
Phone numbers;
Email addresses;
Vaccine delivery hours;
Physical address
Shipping address
Vaccine administration address
Vaccine storage unit make, model, and cubic feet.
Data logger information and certificates of calibration, for both primary and backup
