Posted: Thursday, October 11, 2018Flu Vaccine Clinic: Today
Flu vaccines will be available for faculty and staff members today, October 11, between 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. in Campbell Student Union 415.
Influenza (flu) is a contagious disease that can lead to serious illness, including pneumonia. The flu can make even healthy people sick enough to miss work or school for a significant amount of time or even be hospitalized.
Appointments for the flu vaccine clinic are not necessary, but please bring your health insurance card with you. Most insurance plans will be accepted, including Blue Cross Blue Shield of WNY, Independent Health, Blue Choice, MVP, and Medicare Part B. Employees without a participating insurance plan will be charged $30 for the flu shot. Empire Plan enrollees may obtain their flu shot from an Empire Plan participating pharmacy without a copay or at their doctor’s office (participating provider) for their usual copay should they wish to do so.
Participation and acceptance of any insurance is not a guarantee of benefits or payment in full. Copayments or a deductible may apply. Please call Employee Benefits at 878-4821 or the member services department of your insurance company with questions regarding your health insurance coverage. The phone number should be on your insurance card.
