Proof of immunity is required for Rubella, Rubeola, and Varicella. It can be lab titers, documentation of 2 doses of vaccination, or for Varicella, it can be history of disease based on physician diagnosis. This is required for all employed staff and volunteers. Licensed Independent Practitioners are only tracked for TB.

For MMR & VZ, does your organization require proof of immunity for employees and staff?  Are the requirements the same or different for new employees vs. newly credentialed physicians on medical staff?

We require documentation of 2 MMR at least 28 days apart or protective titers for employees of the Health System.  New house staff are the same.  MDs employed by Health System are the same.  Other faculty MDs are a group we do not have our arms around yet.
