Michigan Immunization Portal FAQ (PDF version)

General Immunization Portal Questions

The Michigan Immunization Portal is a website where you can download a copy of your State of Michigan immunization record.

  • 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. Please review these options for locating a historical record.

The Portal is available online at https://mdhhsmiimmsportal.state.mi.us.

If you have been immunized in the State of Michigan and are over the age of 18, you may be able to download your immunization record from the Michigan Immunization Portal. The portal cannot be used to download immunization records for minors under the age of 18. Immunization information prior to December 31, 1993, is limited and may not be available.

Immunization Record Questions

At this time, there is no national registry of immunization data. The portal contains immunizations which have been recorded in the Michigan Care Improvement Registry (MCIR). If you had immunizations in another state or country, they may not be in this portal. Immunization records from other states or countries may be provided to your doctor’s office or local health department for input into MCIR.

See our How to Read your State of Michigan Immunization Record guide for information on reading your immunization record. Additional information on your record can be found at www.mcir.org/public/.

Vaccines are typically available on your immunization record within 72 hours but please note, there is no legal requirement in the State of Michigan for immunizations administered to adults to be entered into the MCIR.  If after 72 hours the vaccine is not on your record, contact the provider, pharmacy, health department, etc. that administered it to request they add it to your MCIR record. For additional information regarding immunization reporting, go to www.mcir.org/public

If you do not have a record of your immunizations and you need one, please review these options for locating a historical record.  The MCIR system did not start until 1998 and only immunizations administered to children born after December 31, 1993 are required to be reported.

MiLogin Account Questions

MiLogin is the State of Michigan’s Identity Management solution that allows users the ability to access many state services and systems online, across multiple departments, using a single user ID and password.

  • MDHHS myHealthButton
  • Michigan Office of Retirement Services (ORS)’s miAccount
  • Treasury eServices for Individual Income Tax
  • Unemployment Insurance Agency’s Michigan Web Account Manager (MiWAM) or Pure Michigan Talent Connect (PMTC) online services

All above services use your MiLogin User ID. Therefore, if you already have a MiLogin ID created for any of these services, please use that user ID and password to log into the MiLogin portal, instead of creating a new account.

To ensure your information remains private you must create a MiLogin account or log into your existing MiLogin account.
MiLogin is accessed from the Michigan Immunization Portal when you select ‘Get My Immunization Record (Sign In)’.
After clicking ‘Get My Immunization Record (Sign In)’ on the Michigan Immunization Portal home page you are redirected to the MiLogin screen. You will have the option to create a new account by clicking on the ‘Create an Account’ button and following the prompts.
Click on the “Forgot your password?” link to initiate the password reset. You will be asked to enter your current User ID, select a security option to verify your identity, and enter a new password to reset the forgotten password.

State of Michigan employees, Contractors or third-party users that have other MiLogin accounts such as MiLogin for Business or MiLogin for Workers will need to log in using a separate MiLogin citizen account.

This means you have created multiple MiLogin accounts with UI, PMTC or other State Agencies such as DNR, MiBridges, etc. Please call MiLogin support at 877-932-6424, option 5, to have this corrected.
