Community pharmacies applying to take part in Phase 2 of the national Covid vaccination program will be required to have a patient management system and a PRODA account for access to the Australian Immunisation Register, along with similar physical site requirements to general practices applying to take part.

Pharmacies will also need to use the promised national booking system, despite details about how the system will work or who is building it are still not available. It is also uncertain how it will interface with other pharmacy systems.
