OAR 333-046-0015: Purpose of Vaccine Access Program (VAP)

The Vaccine Access Program (VAP) is designed to provide selected vaccines purchased by the Oregon Health Authority to enrolled clinics. (1) Vaccines purchased using funds provided through the federal Section-317 program may be used for adults with no insurance or whose insurance does not include immunization coverage. 317 vaccines must be provided at no cost, besides an administration fee, to the recipient. If the recipient cannot pay the administration fee, it must be waived. (2) Billable vaccines purchased using state funds may be provided to insured patients served at a VAP-enrolled clinic. The cost of the vaccine serum and an administration fee may be billed to the vaccine recipient or their payor.
