St. Luke’s Health System is taking a new approach to how it schedules COVID-19 vaccine appointments.
Instead of people checking back repeatedly for available vaccination appointments, St. Luke’s will reach out to patients on itsr registry when new vaccine supply has arrived and appointments are available. The change is the direct result of feedback, and is designed to help reduce frustration and save people time.
St. Luke’s is asking those interested in being added to St. Luke’s vaccine registry to fill out a questionnaire in the patient online electronic health record portal known as myChart or follow the instructions below. St. Luke’s registry is separate from the state’s online registry.
“We would prefer that those choosing to be vaccinated by St. Luke’s stick to one list at this time to avoid double-booking. Those choosing to list on more than one registry who are able to schedule an appointment are asked only to make one appointment,” the hospital said.
Those wishing to be included in St. Luke’s registry will need to complete a questionnaire online or by calling us. St. Luke’s asks that those who are not yet eligible to receive the vaccine wait a few weeks before filling out a questionnaire to ensure access for the most high-risk, eligible patients.
People who do not have a myChart account, do not have Internet access or need interpretation services can call St. Luke’s at (208) 381-9500 to be added to St. Luke’s vaccine registry. They will be contacted by their preferred method when it’s time to schedule an appointment.
