The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that everybody age 6 months and older receive an annual influenza vaccination. This year's flu vaccines are quadrivalent, meaning they are designed to protect against the four viruses that research indicates will be most common for the upcoming season.
With respiratory illness season nearing, minimizing the spread of all respiratory infections remains critically important. Every year flu vaccination prevents illnesses and, in the event of infection, reduces the likelihood of medical visits, hospitalization and even death.
Billings Clinic will bill insurance for you. Many insurance plans pay full cost of the flu vaccine. Please check with your insurance company first to verify coverage. Flu vaccines provided at Billings Clinic are preservative-free. Flu Mist is not available.
