TeamCare offers immunizations at no cost

TeamCare partners with CVS Caremark to offer immunizations covered at 100 percent with no deductible or coinsurance at participating retail pharmacies.

Vaccines are an important part of protecting you and your family against serious diseases. Common vaccinations for disease prevention including seasonal flu shots, shingles, pneumonia, tetanus, hepatitis A and B, measles, and other ACA-preventative care vaccines, are conveniently available at the pharmacy counter without an appointment.

Why are vaccines important?

1. Prevent serious illnesses - Vaccines protect individuals from potentially life-threatening diseases by boosting the body's immune response. They help prevent severe complications, hospitalizations, and long-term health effects.
2. Protect vulnerable populations - Some people, such as infants, elderly individuals, and those with weakened immune systems, cannot receive certain vaccines. When a large percentage of the population is vaccinated, it creates herd immunity, reducing the overall spread of diseases and protecting those who cannot be vaccinated.
3. Prevent disease outbreaks - Keeping up with recommended vaccines helps prevent the resurgence of diseases that were once nearly eradicated.
4. Safe and well-tested - Vaccines undergo rigorous testing and monitoring to ensure their safety and effectiveness. Side effects, if any, are usually mild and temporary compared to the potential severity of the diseases they prevent.

Staying up to date on vaccinations is a simple way to protect individuals and communities from preventable diseases. This wellness benefit covers vaccinations at no cost if you go to an in-network PPO provider.

State laws, doctor recommendations, and age restrictions may vary, so call ahead to check which vaccines are available and can be administered locally.
