RHCVD Program Summary
The Rural Health Clinic Vaccine Distribution Program (RHCVD) distributes COVID-19 vaccines directly to Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) to increase the availability of COVID-19 vaccines in rural communities.
The RHCVD Program aims to improve COVID-19 vaccine access and vaccination rates to medically underserved rural communities.
Working in partnership with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), HRSA invites all Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)-certified RHCs to join the RHCVD Program to directly receive federal vaccine allocations separate from jurisdictions' weekly allocations.

- To verify your RHC status and CCN, visit the CMS Quality, Certification and Oversight Reports (QCOR) website.
Enrollment

Once your RHC status is verified, email your CCN to RHCVaxDistribution@hrsa.gov for additional enrollment information.
