Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS)/TRICARE: Inclusion of Retail Network Pharmacies as Authorized TRICARE Providers for the Administration of TRICARE Covered Vaccines

Краткое содержание

This interim final rule allows a TRICARE retail network pharmacy to be an authorized provider for the administration of three TRICARE-covered vaccines in the retail pharmacy setting. The three immunizations are H1N1 vaccine, seasonal influenza vaccine, and pneumococcal vaccine. In addition, this interim final rule solicits public comment on also including other TRICARE-covered immunizations in the future for which retail network pharmacies will be authorized providers. As part of DoD preparations for a possible public health emergency involving H1N1 influenza this fall and winter, this is being issued as an interim final rule.
