Distribution Business PRACTICES
Seasonal flu vaccine distributors, who are members of the Initiative, agree to adhere to a voluntary Code of Responsible Business Practices.
- Comply with all CDC initiatives and guidelines, including the Influenza Vaccine Tracking System.
- Purchase vaccines exclusively from the manufacturer or from one of the manufacturers' Authorized Distributors.
- Allocate resources to address specific complaints and grievances. If violations of the Code are not reconciled within a reasonable timeframe, Code certification will be rescinded.
- Verify that all state wholesale distributor, and Designated Representative licenses are in good standing.
- Adhere to all manufacturer storage and handling guidelines.
The Flu Vaccine Business Practices Initiative was formed in 2006 by seasonal flu vaccine distributors to promote
flu vaccine supply transparency and education.
