Providers’ designated primary VFC coordinators and back-up coordinators must complete the annual 2019 VFC program training requirements in one of the following ways:
The requirement must be met by October 1 each year and must be reported on the following year's annual provider agreement. The Provider Agreement includes a box to indicate that the VFC coordinator and back-up coordinator completed the required annual training and to indicate which training was completed.
In order to document staff education, the NCIP has provided a roster for providers to keep onsite for each staff member. This may be requested from your practice during a VFC compliance site visit.
If you have questions, please contact the Help Desk at 1-877-873-6247.
