in private sector. Another 175 medical colleges are also in the process of
development. Against 52,000 MBBS seats in 2013-14, there are now 84,000 UG
seats. Several medical commissions are also being set up. Around 1,50,000

Shri
Rajesh Bhushan, Union Health Secretary along with Dr. R. S. Sharma, Chairman of
Empowered Group on Vaccine Administration (Co-WIN) and member, National Expert
Group on Vaccine Administration of COVID-19 (NEGVAC) chaired a high-level
meeting today with Health Secretaries and MDs (NHM) of States and UTs on the
vaccination of age-appropriate groups through a video conference (VC) today.
The
nationwide COVID-19 Vaccination drive was launched on 16th January,
2021. This is now to be exponentially expanded to the following age-groups from
1st March, 2021:
i) all citizens above 60
years of age, and
ii) those within the age
bracket of 45 to 59 years with specified co-morbidities
The
States and UTs were explained the basic features of version 2.0 of the digital
platform CO-Win, which is a population-scale software with capacity of
processing several thousands of entries. The new phase of vaccination of
age-appropriate groups will expand the COVID vaccination in the country
manifold. With a citizen –centric approach, the fundamental shift in this phase
is that citizens in the identified age groups, as also those healthcare workers
and frontline who have been missed out or left out of the present phase of
vaccination, can select vaccination centres of their choice. Secondly, the
private sector hospitals will be involved as COVID Vaccination centres to
harness their potential to expand the vaccination capacities.
It
was pointed out that all COVID Vaccination Centers (CVCs) must be health
facilities as under:
1.
i.
Government health facilities such as SHCs, PHCs, CHCs, Ayushman
Bharat Health and Wellness Centres, Sub-Division Hospitals, District Hospitals
and Medical College Hospitals.
ii.
All Private Hospitals empanelled under Central Government Health
Scheme (CGHS), Ayushman Bharat- Pradhan Mantri Jan Aarogya Yojana (AB-PM JAY)
and similar State Health Insurance Schemes.
States/UTs
were asked to ensure that the private health facilities mandatorily must have
the following for using them as COVID Vaccination Centres:
i.
They must have adequate space for the vaccination process, as
detailed in the comprehensive SOPs issued by the Ministry;
ii.
They must have basic cold chain equipments for storing the
vaccine vials;
iii.
They must have their own team of vaccinators and staff;
iv.
They must have adequate facility for management of any AEFI
cases.
All
beneficiaries, regardless of the mode of access, must be advised to carry any
one of the following photo ID document:
·
o
§
Aadhar Card
§
Electoral Photo Identity Card (EPIC)
§
The Photo ID card specified at the time of registration in case
of online registration (if not Aadhar or EPIC)
§
Certificate of co-morbidity for citizens in age group of 45
years to 59 years (signed by a registered medical practitioner)
§
Employment certificate/ Official Identity Card – (either but
with photo and date of birth) for HCWs and FLWs
The
States and UTs were explained the simplified process of registration, which
shall be through three routes:
i.
Advance Self-Registration:
The
beneficiaries will be able to self register in advance by downloading the
CO-Win 2.0 portal and through other IT Applications such as Arogya Setu etc.
This will show the Government and private hospitals serving as COVID
Vaccination Centres (CVCs) with date and time of the available schedules. The
beneficiary would be able to choose the CVC of his/her choice and book an
appointment for vaccination.
ii.
On-site Registration:
Facility of On-Site
registration allows those who cannot self register in advance to walk into the
identified COVID Vaccination Centres and get themselves registered on-site and
then vaccinated.
iii.
Facilitated Cohort
Registration:
Under this mechanism, the
State/UT Government will take proactive lead. Specific date(s) for COVID
vaccination will be decided where target groups of potential beneficiates will
be vaccinated. The State/UT health authorities will ensure that that the target
groups are actively mobilised and brought to the vaccination centres. ASHAs,
ANMs, Panchayati Raj representatives and Women’s Self Help Groups (SHGs) will
be utilized for mobilizing the target groups.
Under
all the above three routes, all beneficiaries would be captured on Co-WIN2.0
platform and would be issued digital QR Code based provisional (on receiving
the first does) and final (on receiving second dose) certificates. These can be
downloaded from the link shown in the SMS the beneficiary shall receive after
the vaccination. Print out of these certificates can also be taken from the
Vaccination Centres.
Vaccination
will be free of charge at the Government Vaccination Centres. The beneficiary
will have to show a photo ID document for proof of age (preferably Aadhar card
or EPIC card) and certificate of co-morbidity (if required). Those taking the
COVID vaccine at any designated/empanelled private health facility will have to
pay a pre-fixed charge.
States
and UTs have been asked to keep a Vaccination Scale-up Plan ready which will
include the granular weekly and fortnightly plans for scaling up the
vaccination sites both within the government and private facilities and also
the number of vaccine doses administered.
