Mandatory Employment Requirements Discussion Site

Case study: During a senior leadership team meeting at South Healthcare, the risk manager recommends firing healthcare workers who do not get the influenza vaccination. The manager cites TN law, CMS penalties in response to the ACA, randomized control trial results, and recent actions taken by a Minnesota based health system, Essentia Health, as reasons to enact this policy. As the nurse executive, you are concerned about adhering to healthcare law, containing costs, and protecting patients, though you are equally concerned about fair labor practices. To prepare for the next discussion, you become better informed on the issues raised by the risk manager.

1. What are the TN requirements for healthcare worker influenza vaccination?

2. What are the CMS rules on reporting requirements for healthcare personnel influenza vaccination and how do they relate to the ACA? Are there penalties for organizations who do not reach 90% compliance?

3. Is there uniform scientific acceptance of the meta-analysis on the four randomized controlled trials (RCTs) commonly cited to justify compulsory immunization?

4. Why is the Minnesota Nurses Association filing grievances to win back the jobs and wages of RNs fired for not participating in Essentia Health's mandatory flu shot policy?

5. Given what you now know about this situation, what will be your recommendation to the South Healthcare leadership team? Explain.
