Comagine Health’s mission is to work together with our partners to improve health and create a better health care system so that people and communities will flourish. As part of our mission and values, we recognize the importance of having our employees vaccinated against COVID-19- both as a protection for our larger community and to keep our employees and their families safe.

 
 

As a federal contractor, and in compliance with Executive Order 14042, Comagine Health requires its employees and contractors to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 (including any booster shots if required), unless they are approved for a reasonable accommodation based on medical condition or religious belief that prevents them from being vaccinated. Being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 is a condition of employment at Comagine Health.

  • If you are fully vaccinated, you will be required to provide proof of your completed COVID-19 vaccination prior to the first day of your employment. Failure to provide timely proof of your COVID-19 vaccination status may result in your offer of employment being rescinded or your start being delayed.
  • If you are unable to be fully vaccinated due to medical condition or religious belief, you will be required to request an exemption upon acceptance of the offer of employment. As a part of this process, you will be required to provide information or documentation about the reason you cannot be vaccinated. If your request for an exemption is not approved, then your offer of employment may be rescinded.
