Protecting Vulnerable Patients Act

Protecting Vulnerable Patients Act This bill requires health care providers to receive a COVID-19 vaccine as a condition of Medicare and Medicaid participation.

Providers who choose not to receive the vaccine due to medical necessity or religious beliefs must publicly disclose their vaccination status prior to furnishing services.
