National Immunization Awareness Month

With Flu season rapidly approaching, this is the time to review your residents' immunization status and encourage acceptance of seasonal immunization for influenza, pneumococcal immunization for all residents and hepatitis B for those who are at risk. Medicare Part B covers these immunizations and their administration for qualified beneficiaries.

For more information regarding immunizations, reimbursement and educational materials and posters, please view the CMS Immunization website here.
