Nirsevimab Implementation Resources

As nirsevimab is the first product of its kind, there are many things to consider when implementing in a clinical setting. Below are various resources to support implementation in both inpatient and outpatient settings.

Ambulatory/Outpatient Practice Resources

• Practice Readiness Checklist: Use this checklist to assess your practice’s readiness to administer nirsevimab to patients.
• Nirsevimab Implementation Guide: Use this guide as you roll out nirsevimab to patients. 

Hospital/Inpatient Resources

• CDC – Vaccines for Children Program Benefits for Hospitals
  CDC has simplified the process for birthing hospitals to enroll in VFC, including a specialty provider pathway (if approved by their jurisdiction’s VFC program) that allows stocking and offering nirsevimab and hepatitis B vaccination birth dose.
• Association of Immunization Managers – Birthing Institutions and the Vaccines for Children Program: Learn more about the Vaccines for Children Program, how it works, and why birthing institutions should participate in order to provide nirsevimab to infants. 

General Resources

• Immunization Information Statement: Provide this VIS-like information to parents/caregivers when administering nirsevimab.
• Vaccine Refusal/Declination form: Document declination from any patient who is eligible (use the “other” category).
• Coding Guidance: Initial guidance is included in the resources above but check in with the AAP on the latest coding guidance for nirsevimab.
