Flu season is almost here, and with it comes the opportunity to receive your flu vaccination on campus.
Healthy for Life staff will be hosting flu shot clinics on your campus in October. Flu shots are free for faculty, staff, dependents 12+ accompanied by an adult, and retirees who are enrolled in a University of Missouri (UM) medical plan, so don't forget to bring your insurance card to the clinic. If you are not enrolled in a UM medical plan, flu shots are $20 and can be paid for with cash or by checks made out to Healthy for Life.
Eligible employees can also earn 50 points toward Tier 2 of the 2017 Wellness Incentive by receiving their vaccination. The points will be added in November when the incentive kicks off. The 2017 Wellness Incentive rewards you with up to $450 for taking steps toward a more healthy lifestyle.
