A bill for an act relating to immunization information requested on a medical examiner report used for investigations.

HF 2097 requires medical examiners investigating infant deaths (ages zero to three) to include specific immunization details in their reports. The bill mandates that reports request the date and type of the decedent’s last vaccination, and if multiple shots were given at once, all must be listed. This affects medical examiners and healthcare providers who supply immunization records during these investigations. The state medical examiner must later develop implementing rules under Iowa’s administrative procedures.
