ByKirsty McMaster

What if ... we covered the cost of your flu vaccination?

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.
