ACTIVE PHASE IN OC
Phase 1A
Currently HCA has not received the vaccine allocation to schedule 1B appointments.  As doses are received, HCA will include Tier 1B eligible residents within the Othena scheduling platform. Other approved COVID-19 vaccinators may have received their allotment for 1B. Please discuss with your healthcare provider or local pharmacies if you fall within this group. With the limited supply of vaccines, the County of Orange is following the State of California’s guidance and framework for fair and equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines. See phased approach HERE.

The success of the County’s implementation of the phased, tiered vaccination plan depends on everyone being patient and allowing priority groups to be vaccinated first. As shipping delays resolve and additional vaccines are received in Orange County, vaccinations will be provided to the following prioritized groups:

• Phase 1A populations (all tiers)
• Phase 1B, Tier 1 populations which includes:
  • Education
  • Food Service, Grocery and Agriculture Workers
  • Child Care Providers
  • Emergency Services

The HCA Hotline at 714-834-2000 is available Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. for questions related to Othena, vaccine appointments and other vaccine-related issues. Specific Othena questions can also be emailed to support@compositeapps.net.
