Eligible Veterans can get a no-cost flu shot from a nearby VA clinic or within your community from one of nearly 65,000 in-network pharmacies or urgent care locations. Flu vaccines are usually available September through April. Use our on-line VA locator.
Keep in mind:
· To get a no-cost vaccine, the provider must be part of VA’s community care network.
· If you receive a flu shot from a non-network provider, you may be liable for the cost of the vaccine.
· Retail pharmacies include most supermarket and local pharmacies.
· Many urgent care locations offer walk-in care.
· Call ahead to see if a pharmacy or urgent care site:
· participates in the VA flu shot program.
· offers the specific flu vaccine that you want.
