All employees are eligible for a flu shot, CU Health Plan members pay no fee
The least wonderful time of year is here – flu season. Okay, okay, there’s a lot to love about the fall and we can all delight in seeing the turning leaves but to truly enjoy the view you’ll want to avoid the flu. Each year, between 5-20 percent of the U.S. population contracts the flu virus.
Give yourself a shot at good health this flu season by attending one of the flu shot clinics happening throughout the month of October.
Flu shots are free for primary members of a CU Health Plan and their spouses. Non-CU Health Plan members pay just $26 for a shot and some insurances will be accepted (see the list of accepted insurance providers). If you carry health insurance but it’s not accepted at our clinics, you may be able receive a free shot at your doctor’s office.
