Claim your Free Flu Shot!

FREE flu shots! Your current insurance most likely already covers it.

Did you know that most health insurance plans, even catastrophic, high deductible, and H.S.A. plans usually include getting your yearly flu shot? Flu shots are likely considered part of their “immunization” benefit for no additional cost.

Don’t expect to just waltz into a clinic, roll up your sleeve and get one though. Here’s how it usually works: If you haven’t already had your annual check up (and you get one every year right?) go ahead and schedule it. I always schedule mine in the fall so I can take advantage of the free flu shot. Let the receptionist know you would like to catch up on your immunizations as part of this preventative check up. When you go in, you’ll pay your copay in most cases, get your physical check up and get your flu shot (in addition to any other needed immunizations) all in one visit. Keep in mind you almost always need to ASK your doctor to give you the flu shot however!

There are many kinds of health insurance plans and each one may operate slightly differently. Please feel free to call My Health Insurance of Washington to get a complimentary look at your plan and how to take advantage of this great benefit.
