Patient Expresses Interest in COVID-19 Vaccine

For All Inpatient Physicians and APPs
Patient Expresses Interest in COVID-19 Vaccine
New BPA Fires

When a patient expresses interest in getting a COVID-19 vaccine, a new BPA will fire in the patient’s chart – if they meet these criteria:

1. They haven’t started or completed any COVID-19 vaccine series and

2. They haven’t received any monoclonal antibody therapy in the last 90 days.

Depending on the Acknowledgment Reason selected the following will take place:

  • I am not the appropriate provider: BPA locks out that clinician for the encounter.

  • Patient now refuses: BPA locks out all clinicians for that encounter.

  • Not a candidate/has medical contraindication: BPA locks out all clinicians for that encounter.

  • Remind in 72 hours: BPA locks out that provider for 72 hours for the encounter.
