Marquette – The Oscar G. Johnson VA Medical Center in Iron Mountain has scheduled walk-in out-patient clinic for enrolled Veterans to receive free flu shots on Thursday. October 9 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the D.J. Jacobetti Home for Veterans in Marquette.
No appointment is necessary. Veterans may also request the flu shot at their regularly scheduled doctor’s appointments.
In addition, the VA has expanded access for receiving vaccinations by partnering with Walgreens to provide flu shots to Veterans and having it automatically entered directly into their VA medical record without filling out VA forms or carrying paper records. Walgreens accepts most insurance plans, including Medicare. There may be a cost to the Veteran. However, as part of the agreement VA has funded the first 75,000 flu shots provided by Walgreens to enrolled Veterans nationwide.
Veterans may also call 1-800-215-8262, extension 38994 to confirm vaccine availability and walk-in clinic dates for all VA clinics in the Upper Peninsula and northern Wisconsin.
