Even if you already have an appointment for your first immunization and you know which vaccine you will be vaccinated with, it can still be changed. It is possible both online and by telephone, via the hotline. A map was also created, which shows the available dates for vaccinations in individual locations along with information about the vaccines used.
Rescheduling to vaccinate for COVID-19or vaccinations is a hot topic - many who have registered for vaccination want to change the date or location of their vaccination point to a more convenient one. The type of vaccine also arouses emotions - when registering for vaccination, with few exceptions, we cannot choose it.
It turns out, however, that with a little stubbornness, you can change both the date of the already scheduled COVID-19 vaccination, and narrow down the choice to a specific vaccine. How to do it?
How do I reschedule my COVID-19 vaccination?
People who have been issued with an e-referral for vaccination against COVID-19 and have already chosen the date of vaccination, can change it in one of three ways.
- With IKP.After booking the vaccination date, you can cancel it in the Patient Online Account, and then book another appointment in the same way, i.e. via IKP. This is the most risky method, because there is no certainty that by canceling the visit we will gain - we might as well lose, because the system will indicate a more distant date.
- By calling the hotline.The vaccination date can also be changed by calling the 989 hotline (this is the method recommended by theSzczepimySię profile, which runs the Government Information Center on Twitter).
After connecting with a consultant, we can determine the most convenient date and place of vaccination, obtain information about the vaccine that is used in this point (but with no guarantee that we will be vaccinated), and only then reschedule the visit by canceling the vaccine, which we have already designated in the system.
- Directly at the vaccination point.We can also arrange a new vaccination date directly at the vaccination point. If free doses of the vaccine are left at the point and there is a real risk of wasting them, the medical staff has the rightvaccinate a person who has already issued an e-referral for vaccination.
This solution is possible thanks to the regulation published in April in the Journal of Laws concerning the use of doses of the COVID-19 vaccine that would be wasted. A dose of such a vaccine may be administered to those adults who have declared their intention to vaccinate against COVID-19 between January and March 2022, or who have registered for a specific date in their round of enrollment.
