Section II: To be completed by the physician or care provider:
To Physician or Care Provider:
To initiate a request for reasonable accommodations, employees must provide current documentation of a disability. As the
employee's physician or care provider, you are asked to fully complete all sections of this form. Additional information can be
attached if necessary. Note: Federal and state law define a disability as a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, an individual having a record of such an impairment, or an individual being regarded as having such an impairment.
To complete this form (see attached, page 2, section 2), you should review the employee's job functions and other information relevant to the employee's job at Vanderbilt. If those materials have not been provided, please contact the employee and let him or her know you cannot complete this form without those materials.
The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA) prohibits employers and other entities covered by GINA Title II from requesting or requiring genetic information of an individual or family member of the individual, except as specifically allowed by this law. To comply with this law, we are asking that you not provide any genetic information when responding to this request for medical information. 'Genetic information' as defined by GINA, includes an individual's family medical history, the results of an individual's or family member's genetic tests, the fact that an individual or an individual's family member sought or received genetic services, and genetic information of a fetus carried by an individual or an individual's family member or an embryo lawfully held by an individual or family member receiving assistive reproductive services. Thank you for your assistance.
