Moderna COVID-19 vaccine shipments will now come with only one ancillary kit regardless of vial size (one-to-one shipment, instead of two-to-one). This change took effect with orders placed on April 11.
Starting April 11, physicians and other health care provider can opt out of ancillary kits for Moderna, Janssen (Johnson & Johnson), and adult Pfizer (gray cap, no dilution) orders. Physicians and other health care provider who want to opt out need to type “No Ancillary Kit” into the Comments section, along with your storage temperatures, as you place your order.
Please note: Providers cannot opt-out of ancillary kits for the pediatric COVID-19 vaccine (orange cap) as Pfizer pediatric ancillary kits contain the diluent necessary to administer the vaccine.
Vaccine providers with questions may call the Ohio Department of Health Provider Call Center at 1.844.9ODHVAX (1.844.963.4829) between 8 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Mondays through Fridays or email COVIDVACCINE@odh.ohio.gov.
