Flu Season is Here - Vaccination Resources Available

 People with chronic health conditions are at high risk from serious flu complication. It is especially important that people with chronic health conditions, their caregivers and family members, get vaccinated each year.

 
Medicare and Medicaid will pay for the seasonal flu vaccine. Clients and caregivers with other insurance coverage should verify with their insurance company which flu vaccines will be covered.
