What documentation do I need to upload as proof of my flu vaccine?
Valid proof of flu vaccine is documentation that includes your name, DOB, type of flu vaccine that you received, lot number, and date the vaccine was administered. If you receive a flu shot from your primary care provider, this information can be found on your electronic health record. Other flu vaccine providers (ie, a CVS Pharmacy) will also give you documentation with this information.
If you’re an employee and receive a flu shot through Empower Health, documentation will be submitted automatically.
