 web posted October 26, 2007 PSA – With influenza season approaching, South Carolinians and especially those with a higher risk for flu-related complications along with those who live with or care for people at high risk are encouraged to get their flu vaccinations. DHEC is only one of many flu shot providers. Check to see if your medical practitioner is offering flu shots as well. Information about DHEC clinics near you will be regularly updated on the DHEC Web site at http://www.scdhec.gov/flu. Prices for the shots vary, however at DHEC clinics, there is a $25 charge for the vaccination, which Medicare and Medicaid will cover for those who are eligible. Medicare Advantage enrollees should contact their plans to learn whether a certain provider needs to provide the flu shot. Anyone 6 months or older is eligible for a flu shot. Information about who should get a flu vaccination is on the Web, and available from your doctor or any of DHEC’s 46 county public health departments. Flu vaccination information, clinic times and locations are at http://www.scdhec.gov/flu or call DHEC’s Immunization Division at (803) 898-0460 (toll free 1-800-277-4687).
