Soldier’s Home to hold vaccine clinic for veterans

HOLYOKE — The Soldier’s Home in Holyoke will be pairing with Maxim Health Systems for a flu vaccine clinic for veterans. Pneumonia vaccinations will also be available. Spouses accompanying the veterans will be able to obtain the vaccinations under the same payment criteria. The clinic will take place on Oct. 26 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Maxim’s payment criteria is as follows:

1) If you have Medicare Part B, there is no charge. You must provide proper documentation of such coverage. This must be your primary and not your supplemental coverage.

2) Check with your health-care insurance carrier to determine your eligibility for payment. Some carriers will not pay for the flu or pneumonia vaccine and it will be your responsibility to pay.

3) If you do not have coverage under #1 or #2 above, there will be a charge of $30 for the flu shot and $65 for the pneumonia shot to the provider—cash or check only.

You must bring your Soldier’s Home in Holyoke I.D. Card (Blue Card) or your Discharge papers (DD214) in order to show your eligibility..
