Walmart has joined an international effort to make vaccination and other health records available digitally, beginning with the COVID-19 vaccine, allowing customers to easily offer proof of their vaccination status when needed.

To do this, Walmart plans to use technical standards being developed under the Vaccination Credential Initiative (VCI). The VCI is co-chaired by non-profit The Commons Project Foundation (TCP) with involvement from Microsoft, Oracle, Salesforce, Cerner, Epic Systems, the Mitre Corporation and the Mayo Clinic. Walmart is one of the first major retailers to publicly align with the VCI.

Walmart and Sam’s Club customers will soon have the option to use the free Health Pass by Clear app, or TCP’s CommonHealth and CommonPass apps, to access and share their health records, including vaccinations.
