All faculty, staff, students and residents who have not yet signed up for a COVID-19 booster vaccine can now register for a weekend vaccination clinic Saturday, Sept. 25.
All available vaccination dates, times and locations can be viewed and scheduled by logging into the scheduling website. Booster scheduling is currently available to everyone with a UT Health San Antonio sign-on.
To schedule your COVID-19 booster, log in to our scheduling website. Locations include the Medical Arts and Research Center (MARC) or Wellness 360 located in the School of Nursing.
Following recommendations set forth by the Food and Drug Administration on Sept. 17, 2021, Pfizer boosters will be administered and can be given to those who had an mRNA vaccine (Pfizer or Moderna).
Also beginning this week, UT Health San Antonio eligible patients will receive an invitation to schedule their booster COVID-19 vaccines via MyChart. This includes patients aged 12 and older at high risk of severe COVID-19, as well as all patients aged 65 and older.

Complete your electronic check-in and required consents within MyChart
MyChart electronic eCheck-in is required to streamline check-in. If you already have a MyChart account, a link to “Log In” will be provided after selecting and confirming your vaccine appointment.
To receive the COVID-19 vaccine, certain consents listed below may need to be completed, if they have not been previously completed:
- Consent for Treatment: Required if you have not previously received a vaccine or care from UT Health Physicians or Wellness 360.

Sign up for MyChart if you are not a MyChart user
MyChart is the online portal for patients made available through Epic, our electronic medical record. MyChart allows 24/7 access to your health records through UT Health San Antonio. A MyChart account is necessary for completing eCheck-in, even if you do not plan on being a future patient of UT Health San Antonio. After completing the scheduling process, you will be prompted to “Sign up now.”
We hope these measures help expedite everyone’s access to the COVID-19 booster for a more seamless vaccination experience. Should you experience any technical issues with the scheduling website or mobile site, please call the Health IT Help Desk at (210) 450-4800.
