The WA Government’s “Free Jab June” program has now been extended until 31 July 2022.
The registration for reimbursement for vaccinations administered by general practice has also been extended until 31 July 2022.
Payments to practices will be provided in two rounds:
- Practices that registered before 30 June should have received an email from the Communicable Disease Control Directorate WA Department of Health with instructions on how to claim reimbursement for vaccinations provided during June. If your practice did not receive this email please contact influenza.reimbursement@health.wa.gov.au
- Practices that registered for the program after 30 June will be sent an email in August with instructions on how to claim reimbursements for vaccinations provided during July.
- Practices that have already registered for the program do not have to reregister for the month of July.
The WA Department of Health website has been updated to reflect these changes and provides more details on the grant criteria.
Practices should email vaccineorders@health.wa.gov.au to register.
