Free flu shots for employees, retirees – west side of campus

The UIC Retzky College of Pharmacy has partnered with the Illinois Department of Central Management Services to provide seasonal flu shots at no charge to eligible State of Illinois employees and retirees.

Free flu shots for UIC employees and retirees will be offered on campus Oct. 6 and Oct. 13.

State employees and retirees enrolled in the Quality Care Health Plan or state-sponsored managed care insurance plans are eligible.

Employees must present their state-sponsored health insurance card and i-card. Retirees and survivors must present their state-sponsored health insurance card and state ID or driver’s license.

Flu shots will be administered:

• 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oct. 6, Cardinal Room 329, Student Center East
• 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oct. 13, Thompson Room C, Student Center West

These are walk-in clinics; no appointment is necessary.

Dependents, spouses, contractual workers, volunteers, consultants, part-time employees not enrolled in a group insurance plan, as well as students, are not eligible for seasonal flu shots through this program.  Employees who have opted out of health insurance coverage through the state are also not eligible for seasonal flu shots through this program.
