Time to Get Your 2026 Flu Shot

Flu vaccination must be completed by Nov. 15 to comply with Munson's Seasonal Influenza (Flu) Vaccine policy. As we have grown as a system, we recognized the need to provide an expanded timeframe for the Healthcare Team to receive their flu vaccine. Flu vaccination is a regulatory requirement and a condition of employment and/or medical staff privileges.

Deadline: Nov. 15

Where:

  • Flu Vaccination Walk-in Clinics: MHC is holding flu vaccination clinics. 
  • Other Flu Vaccination Options: Flu vaccinations can also be done through a primary care office or a local pharmacy with documentation emailed to MHC Employee Health. Do not fax flu vaccine documentation.

Exemptions:

  • Prior Exemptions: If you were granted a medical or religious exemption last year, it will be automatically carried over for the 2026-27 flu season.
  • New Exemptions: All new flu vaccination exemption requests (medical, religious) must be submitted by Oct. 15 to exemptionrequest@mhc.net. Forms received after Oct. 15 will not be considered.
    Note: Contracted medical staff (e.g., SCP, Grand Traverse Pathology, Grand Traverse Radiology, etc.) should follow your employer’s exemption process.
