Appointment Information

Where can I find my appointment details?

If you have a My UNC Chart account, you can find your appointment details there. If you do not have a My UNC Chart account, you should have received a confirmation email or text message with appointment details.

If you have a My UNC Chart account, you can find information about how to reschedule or cancel your appointment there. If you do not have a My UNC Chart account, please call the location where you’re scheduled to reschedule or cancel your appointment. 

What do I need to bring with me to my appointment?

Please fill out the COVID-19 Vaccine Patient Questionnaire Form and bring with you to your appointment. If you cannot complete the form ahead of time, you can complete it at your vaccine appointment.

No identification will be required, and there will be no charge to patients, but if you have insurance, please bring a copy of your insurance card as we will bill your insurance company.

Can I bring my spouse, partner, etc. with me to be vaccinated at my appointment?

No, you must show up for your appointment alone, unless you require special assistance. Walk-in appointments are not available, and vaccines will be given by appointment only. We set our appointments up based on the number of vaccines available. Due to the limited number of vaccines available, appointments fill quickly. Please continue to check www.yourshot.org for open appointment times. Also, North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services has more options for where you can get vaccinated. To learn more, call 1-877-490-6642 or visit covid19.ncdhhs.gov/findyourspot.

As more vaccines become available, other groups will become eligible for vaccination, and we will follow the vaccine distribution guidance released by the CDC and North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS). As part of our mission to improve the health and well being of North Carolinians, we are committed to health equity and enabling everyone to receive the vaccine.

Will I have to wait in a long line when I come for my COVID-19 vaccine appointment?

How long will I need to wait after receiving my shot before I can drive home?
