This online tool allows individuals to screen themselves for prophylaxis eligibility/requirements, print vouchers to take to PODs, and receive medication in a quick and error-free manner. The site can accommodate two million hits per hour. Once personal health information is scanned, it can be transferred to a spreadsheet, but the information is not stored by the Dispense Assist program. The basis for this tool is a medical algorithm vetted by more than 63 physicians. Mentions of tool usage have been observed at preparedness-related conferences. This tool was identified through NACCHOs Resource Portfolio Project on the CDC Public Health Preparedness Capabilities. Through this project, NACCHO worked with the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP) to identify, research, and validate tools, practices, and products that can assist LHDs to address challenges in meeting select PHEP capabilities.
