No-cost flu shots are also available within your local community through April 30, 2023.  To find a flu shot near you, logon to the VA locator and choose a nearby VA facility, in-network pharmacy or urgent care location.

The provider must be part of VA’s community care network that includes retail pharmacies and many urgent care locations.

Call ahead to see if a pharmacy participates in the VA flu shot program.  If you receive a flu shot from a non-network provider, you may be liable for the cost of the vaccine.

To be eligible for a no-cost flu shot, you must be enrolled in the VA health care system and have received care from a VA provider or in-network community care provider within the past 24 months.
