The Baltimore County Department of Health invites county health care providers to register their practice in the county’s new provider registry. Joining this registry will make it easier for the Department to get information to providers in the county as needed.
The state provided all local health departments with their first shipment of the vaccine (100 doses) on Dec. 30, 2020. Baltimore County Department of Health mounted their first COVID vaccination clinic that same evening and successfully vaccinated 100 first responders and frontline healthcare workers as part of the state’s Phase 1 vaccination plan.
The Department is continuing to provide the vaccination to the Phase 1 priority group as additional doses are received. Healthcare professionals providing direct patient care should register information about their practice through the provider portal.
Providers should access the registry at https://providerregistry.baltimorecountymd.gov.
Details on specific groups included in each distribution phase are being determined at the state and local level. The timing of vaccination in each phase depends on vaccine availability and other factors.
The department is not able to provide vaccinations to the public. Individuals interested in receiving the vaccine should regularly check the County’s COVID-19 Updates website and social media pages as well as stay tuned to local media for more information about the process.
