Coronavirus vaccine distributors transition to direct vaccine appointment scheduling
COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
Due to the shrinking number of vaccine-eligible people on online surveys and more consistent shipments of coronavirus vaccine doses, some providers are switching to a direct vaccine appointment scheduling system.
MU Health Care has said, instead of only emailing people from surveys, it will post scheduling links on its website when doses become available.
“This new invitation system will help us ensure that no appointments go unfilled and that everyone who is eligible has an opportunity to schedule an appointment,” said Brad Myers, MU Health Care executive director of pharmacy and laboratory services.
