At HIF, we value choice and access, which is why we are covering the cost of an annual flu vaccination up to the value of $20 (1 per person, per calendar year) on selected Extras policies, which include Pharmacy.

Members can get a flu vaccination at any registered pharmacy in Australia. The service is not available through your GP.
