The Florida Department of Health in Broward County is now having people eligible for COVID-19 shots sign up over the phone.
Seniors 65 and older and frontline healthcare workers can call 866-201-6313 to request an appointment, and for those requiring TTY access, the number is 833-476-1526.
“When people call the appointment number, they will be asked through an automated system to enter information using their telephone keypad. Live agents will call people back to make appointments until all current appointments are filled,” the health department said in a news release. “People who receive their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine at DOH-Broward sites through this new appointment system will be asked to schedule their second dose through this new system.”
After struggling with an online system, the Florida Department of Health in Broward County is now having people eligible for COVID-19 shots sign up over the phone through the state’s appointment scheduling system.
