It\u2019s vital that we work to remove these kinds of obstacles so we can effectively combat this virus and make sure vaccines are accessible to our most at-risk residents.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59982&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the federal government encourages vaccine providers to ask patients for ID and health insurance information, you cannot be denied the vaccine if you don\u2019t have them or don\u2019t provide them. To reduce these barriers to accessing the vaccine, it\u2019s important that the public and vaccine providers are aware that identification and health insurance are not required for people to receive the vaccine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many vulnerable residents may not have a form of identification or health insurance. For example, immigrants often lack state IDs, driver\u2019s licenses, Social Security numbers, or health insurance. They may also be fearful about providing these documents because of their immigration status. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59983&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Victims of domestic violence may lack forms of identification or other documents when they flee from their abusers, and individuals experiencing homelessness may also face difficulty in obtaining these documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The AG\u2019s Office notes that denying a vaccine to a patient who doesn\u2019t produce a photo identification, a Social Security number, or health insurance may violate Massachusetts\u00a0anti-discrimination law\u00a0as such practices may be discriminatory or have a disparate impact based on national origin or race. Deceiving or misleading a consumer into believing that identification or health insurance is legally required, when no such requirement exists, may also be a violation of the state\u2019s consumer protection law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;70106&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further, any agency or health care provider that collects sensitive information from individuals including their names, along with their Social Security numbers, state ID numbers or driver\u2019s license numbers is required to\u00a0adopt security safeguards to prevent identity theft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The AG\u2019s Office is also reminding residents that vaccine records are confidential, and the vaccine is free to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The AG\u2019s Office urges those who have concerns about discrimination to contact the office\u2019s Civil Rights Division at 617-963-2917 or to file a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/how-to\/file-a-civil-rights-complaint\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">complaint online<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59948&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iStock-474578987-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-34365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iStock-474578987-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iStock-474578987-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iStock-474578987-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iStock-474578987-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/iStock-474578987-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Social Security cards and a sheet of budget numbers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In full transparency, this is a press release from the Massachusetts Attorney General&#8217;s office submitted to SOURCE media. *** [broadstreet zone=&#8221;70107&#8243;] BOSTON &#8211;
