When it comes to your health—and the health of your employees—prevention is key. Ensuring access to preventive care, including vaccines, is one of the most effective ways to stay healthy and avoid costly illnesses down the road. Horizon is committed to supporting your well-being by continuing to provide 100% coverage for preventive vaccines administered by in-network pharmacies and healthcare providers.
Preventive Care That Works for You
Vaccinations are one of the simplest and most powerful tools for maintaining good health. From annual flu shots to vaccines that protect against shingles, pneumonia, and more, staying up to date with your immunizations helps protect you, your family, and your workplace from preventable diseases.
Horizon’s immunization coverage policy ensures that members pay nothing out-of-pocket for preventive vaccines, as long as they are administered by an in-network provider or pharmacy. This means you can prioritize your health without worrying about additional costs.
Where Can You Get Your Shots?
Getting vaccinated has never been easier. You and your covered employees can receive flu shots and other vaccines at no additional cost when you visit:
- In-network pharmacies such as CVS, Walgreens, or Rite Aid
- Your in-network primary care provider or clinic
- Employer-sponsored flu shot events, if available
To find the most convenient location, log in to your Horizon member account and search for in-network providers near you.
Why You Should Get Your Flu Shot Every Year
The flu virus changes from year to year, which means last year’s shot may not protect you this season. The updated flu vaccine is designed to target the strains most likely to circulate this year. Getting your flu shot annually reduces your risk of serious illness, hospitalization, and missed workdays—keeping both you and your team healthy and productive.
Even if you’re generally healthy, vaccination helps protect those around you, including young children, older adults, and individuals with chronic health conditions.
Talk to Your Doctor or Pharmacist
Your healthcare provider or pharmacist can guide you on which vaccines are recommended based on your age, health history, travel plans, and risk factors. Common preventive vaccines include:
- Flu (Influenza) – Recommended annually for everyone six months and older.
- COVID-19 Booster – Helps maintain protection against new variants.
- Shingles (Herpes Zoster) – Recommended for adults 50 and older.
- Pneumococcal (Pneumonia) – Important for older adults and those with certain medical conditions.
- Tdap (Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis) – Recommended every 10 years for adults.
Staying current with these vaccines can make a significant difference in your long-term health.
