Employees miss an estimated 17 million workdays due to the flu each year in the United States. To help reduce the cost of lost productivity and help your employees protect themselves and their environment from the virus, encourage all employees to get their flu vaccination each year. Whether they receive a vaccination at a doctor’s office, clinic or hospital, flu vaccines are covered by BCBSND plans. And did you know that many pharmacies also cover the cost of flu vaccinations?
Participating pharmacies cover several additional vaccinations as well, including:
- Pneumonia
- Shingles
- Diphtheria-Tetanus Combinations
- Human Papillomavirus
- MMR and MMRV
- Meningitis
- Tetanus
- Chickenpox
Encourage your employees to get vaccinated as we all do our part to protect ourselves this flu season.
