Healthy for Life Update and Flu Shot Schedule

Get Moving…Avoid the Flu

Flu shots are now available through Healthy for Life, the faculty and staff wellness program. Mark your calendars for campus flu clinics listed below . Faculty, Staff and their dependents who are 12 years and older AND are enrolled in a UM Health Care plan can receive a FREE flu shot. To do so, please bring your insurance card (for each individual receiving the vaccine) and a completed Flu Consent Form. No appointment needed, just show up!

Not a UM Health Care plan enrollee? That’s ok, those 12 years and older can still receive the vaccination. Please bring $15 (cash or check made payable to Healthy for Life), as well as a completed Flu Consent Form.
