Coverage Through the University’s Health Plans

Benefits-eligible employees enrolled in the University’s health plans can receive flu and COVID-19 vaccines at no cost when administered by an in-network provider or pharmacy using your Optum Rx or Excellus BCBS member cards.

Continued Access to COVID-19 Vaccines in New York State

On Sept. 5, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed an executive order authorizing pharmacies in New York State to administer COVID-19 vaccines without a prescription to individuals ages 3 and older. This ensures broad access across the state while providers await updated Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance. Employees outside of New York State should check with local providers for vaccine availability and requirements.
