Free flu vaccine

Hi ozbargainers

I notice this time last year a kind ozbargainer posted a notice for free flu vaccination in a bulk bill medical practice in Forest Hills in Victoria .

I am aware certain chemists are able to provide flu vaccination for $25 .

Being a tight arse, I thought a free flu vaccination is better than $25 .

Anyone care to provide some comment .

Cheers.

    a lot of work places offer free flu vaccines for their employees, if you work for a big enough company it's worth asking..

    my work does and it's sponsored by BUPA and administered by a rather butch nurse hahaha LOL .

    Patients must have a Medicare Card.

    Patients must first consult with a Doctor at a participating medical centre. If the Doctor advises influenza vaccination is suitable for you, you will be given the vaccine at the same consultation and the whole consultation (including the flu vaccine) will be bulk-billed to Medicare.

    This offer is not valid for patients who are eligible for free influenza vaccination under the Australian Government's "Immunise Australia Program", such as individuals 65 years of age or older.
