It’s important to get the flu shot to protect you and your family from this potentially serious disease. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that everyone 6 months and older get a flu shot by the end of October. 

3 reasons to get the flu shot this year: 

1. It’s free.  With Marketplace health insurance, immunizations are a covered preventive care benefit. Your flu shot is free from a provider in your plan’s network.
2. It’s easy. You can get the flu shot at many locations, like pharmacies and grocery stores.
3. It helps protect you and others. A flu shot can lower your chance of getting sick and spreading the flu to others.
