Employee Flu Shot Information

Influenza vaccination (either the shot or nasal spray) is the most effective way to prevent "the flu" and, contrary to common myth, the flu vaccine does not cause the flu. Employee Health Services is not conducting offsite flu clinics this year but encourages all employees to receive a flu vaccination this fall from their healthcare provider or retail outlet.

That County health plans provide members free flu vaccinations.  Click on the below link for more information.

Wellwise and Sharewell participants can obtain flu shots at no cost by:

  • Visiting an In-network health care provider. We recommend you confirm with your provider's billing staff that they are billing the flu shot under the preventive care benefit.
  • Selecting a CVS MinuteClinic or Target Clinic.

To find a contracted MinuteClinic, just go to blueshieldca.com/findaprovider. Under "Facilities" select "Advanced Search" and choose "Retail Health Clinics".

Please consider getting your flu shot early this year to protect you, your family and your fellow employees.
