Consent Form: To minimize waiting time in line, we strongly encourage you to print and bring a completed Vaccine Consent Form. Cut and paste it into your browser to access this form: https://bit.ly/2ZqtvQW

Please bring: Both your prescription card and insurance card in case the prescription plan does not cover the flu shot, they will bill your medical plan. Also, if you are on Medicare, please bring your card. Walgreen’s will process all claims to the insurance (after the shot is given) at their store and contact the patient directly if there is a copay.

If you are covered by a HMO insurance plan, please check with them to see if they will cover the cost before coming for your flu shot. If you are paying out of pocket, they will take only cash or check.

If you have any other questions, please call Kathy O’Neill at (224) 518-1780, or by email at parishnurse@olwparish.org.
