Flu shots are available for anyone 6 months of age and older, and flu mist is available for most people between the ages of 2 and 49 years. The cost of a flu shot is $24, and flu mist is $29. Payment may be made by cash, check, debit or credit card.
We file with most insurance carriers; however, insurance cards must be presented before a flu shot is given. Children 6 months through 18 years of age who do not have insurance to cover a flu shot may receive a flu shot at no cost.
Public health officials recommend that everyone 6 months of age and above have a flu shot, unless there is a medical reason that they cannot. It is also important that parents, grandparents and other caregivers of infants less than 6 months get a flu shot.
