Request for Medical Exemption from Universal Influenza Vaccination
Request #________
Safety is a core value of Hartford HealthCare. To protect the safety of our patients, coworkers, and
community, Hartford HealthCare requires all employed and non-employed staff members to receive a flu
shot by November 1.
If you believe that you have a medical reason that prevents you from receiving the influenza vaccine, you
must submit this completed form by October 1 of the year in which you wish to be excused from receiving
the vaccine. The exemption form will be reviewed by a team of healthcare professionals. Hartford
HealthCare reserves the right to confirm the information provided with your healthcare provider. By signing
this form, you hereby authorize Hartford HealthCare health professionals to contact your medical provider
regarding conditions that prevent you from receiving the influenza vaccination. If your request is approved,
you will be medically exempted from receiving influenza vaccine and you will be required to wear a mask
while at any Hartford HealthCare location when you are within 6 feet of a patient/client during influenza
season. If your request is not approved, you will be expected to receive the influenza vaccine.
