Although the Agency continues to work with Wellmark to offer flu shots to our employees, at this time there are the only three options for coverage by your health insurance.
1) Use your PCP (primary care physician). The shot is covered at 100%. Your physician has the right to charge you for an office visit, so check ahead.
2) You may use any other in-network (Blue Choice) physician.
3) A pharmacist may give the flu shots at a pharmacy approved by Wellmark to give vaccinations. Go to http://www.wellmark.com/HealthAndWellness/DrugInformation/SpecialPrograms/PharmacyVaccines.aspx to see the list of approved pharmacies for flu shots.
You will owe the 2 Tier drug co-pay of $20 for each vaccination.
