Healthcare
Provider
Ask a healthcare provider like your doctor or pediatrician for a copy of your or your child/dependent’s record.
Note: Request the Official State of Michigan copy. Some doctors may provide a record from their internal health record system, which may not be sufficient for travel or school requirements.
Local Health Department
Request a copy of your or your child/dependent’s record from your county’s Local Health Department (LHD).
If you no longer live in Michigan, contact the LHD of the county you lived in previously. If you move to Michigan, the LHD can assist with creating a new record.
Immunization Record
Request Form
Use the Official State of Michigan Immunization Record Request Form to request a copy of your or your child/dependent’s record.
Send the completed form and required ID to MDHHS-ImmunizationRecords@michigan.gov or via fax to 517-335-9855.
Healthcare providers must report ALL immunizations administered to every child born after December 31, 1993, and under 20 years of age within 72 hours of administration. If you were born before 1994, the registry is unlikely to have your childhood immunizations. See Tips for Finding Old Immunization Records for recommendations.

History of the Michigan Care Improvement Registry
The Michigan Care Improvement Registry (MCIR) is a database known as an Immunization Information System (IIS) that documents immunizations given to individuals in Michigan. MCIR was created in 1998 to collect reliable immunization information for children and make it accessible to authorized users. A 2006 change to the Michigan Public Health Code enabled MCIR to transition from a childhood immunization registry to a registry for all ages.
MCIR benefits healthcare organizations, schools, childcares, pharmacies, and individuals by combining immunization information from multiple providers into one record. This reduces vaccine-preventable diseases and over-vaccination, allowing providers to view up-to-date patient immunization history in one system.
Healthcare providers must report ALL immunizations administered to every child born after December 31, 1993, and under 20 years of age within 72 hours of administration.
How to Read Your State of Michigan Immunization Record
Connect with your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns regarding your immunization record information.
Your immunization record provides a history of all the vaccines reported to the Michigan Care Improvement Registry (MCIR).
If a vaccine is missing from your immunization record, contact the provider who administered the vaccination to request they add it to your MCIR record. If you were born before 1994, your record is unlikely to have your childhood vaccinations. See Tips for Finding Old Immunization Records for recommendations.
