Important Change in Flu Vaccine Coverage
Recent studies have shown that the intranasal (spray) vaccine is not effective in preventing flu, and is therefore unsafe. Effective July 1, 2016 it is no longer covered. Standard injections are still covered at no cost. QualChoice follows the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) suggested list of services to be offered at no cost in a "wellness exam." This includes the standard flu vaccine injection and other recommended screenings. View our Preventive Care Benefit tables. |
