[quote:Etta:MV80NzUzMzkyXzg2NjA0MDMwXzYwNDQ4RUM=] [quote:ITSARICHMANSGAME:MV80NzUzMzkyXzg2NjAyNjkzXzQ0MDREMkIy] If I may play the role of devil's advocate... 2 people apply for a job at ABC Corp. The first is asked for inoculation info and immediately whips out a covid card. The 2nd is asked for inoculation info and immediately and politely informs the potential employer that it violates HIPAA to even ask. What might the employer infer from those 2 responses? [/quote] It's early in the game though. So the person without the card can simply state that they are healthy and felt that there are others in more urgent need of the vaccine and you felt that you should wait. : ) If they follow up in a few months, which they may not, one might want to come up with more BS.

Original Message
Unless there is a State or Federal law that mandates employers must require records of inoculation for terms of employment, your PHI (Private Health Information) cannot be required under HIPAA law. You can freely give this information, but they cannot require it. Your private health information is absolutely protected!
