Effective October 1, 2022, Certified Medical Assistants will be Able
to Administer Vaccine
We are pleased to report the County Medical Association's perseverance in seeking legislation that will allow medical assistants to administer vaccines finally paid off!
HB 5500 - Passed both the House and the Senate and almost assuredly it will be signed by the governor as it is a massive bill that encompasses many items including the language for Medical Assistants.
This initiative was started by the Fairfield County Medical Association and we are glad it will provide some relief to those medical practices that administer vaccines.
