NHS Vaccination Services

If you are intending to provide flu vaccinations this autumn please remember to register this on MYS.

From the 1st September 2026, community pharmacies in England must record all NHS vaccinations in the Record a Vaccination service (RAVS), either accessing the service directly or via an approved pharmacy IT system. 

NHS England are currently working with pharmacy IT suppliers to make it easier to access RAVS from their systems. However, you will still need to sign up for a RAVS account if you do not already have one.

How to sign up to RAVS

• You need to sign up for a RAVS account before the start of autumn vaccinations.
• You can sign up any time from now by going to the Record a vaccination website.
• There will be a bulk onboarding option for chains with 50 or more branches. For more details, email the onboarding support team:  england.vdscentralonboardingsupportteam@nhs.net

Pharmacies already using RAVS

• If you are already using RAVS for all NHS vaccinations, you do not need to do anything. 
• If you are using RAVS for some but not all NHS vaccinations, an administrator or lead administrator can add other national NHS vaccinations, including flu and COVID-19, by going to the Vaccines section of RAVS.

Payments for flu and COVID-19 
Pharmacies are paid automatically for national flu and COVID-19 vaccinations recorded in RAVS, by the NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) through Manage Your Service (MYS).

Reporting 
All pharmacies can create and download reports from RAVS. Pharmacy chains will be able to create reports for the parent company as well as for individual branches.
