MSU patients, faculty, staff, students and retirees will soon be able to fulfill their pharmaceutical needs in the new pharmacy location at 4660 South Hagadorn Road in East Lansing. This space is larger, allowing for upgraded features and expanded over-the-counter products and common vaccinations available by appointment.

Two types of vaccinations will be available: the standard flu vaccine and the high dose flu vaccine for individuals ages 65+. A valid insurance card is required at the time of the visit. Patients can receive a flu shot in the pharmacy or at one of several drive-thru vaccine events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To receive a flu vaccine at the pharmacy, patients must be 18 or older and complete a screening form. In-pharmacy vaccines are by appointment only. Customers should call the pharmacy at (517) 353-4930 to set up an appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MSU Health Care Pharmacies will also be hosting several drive-thru flu vaccine events this fall located at the MSU Pavilion on Farm Lane. No appointment is necessary for the drive-thru events, and flu vaccines are covered under most insurance plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The drive-thru events are scheduled as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>September 23\u201324, 8am to 4:30pm<\/li><li>October 14\u201315, 8am to 4:30pm<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about the drive-thru events and to download the vaccine consent form, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/pharmacy.msu.edu\/pharmacy-news\/flu-vaccine-offered-by-the-msu-health-care-pharmacies\">MSU Health Care\u2019s Pharmacy site<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diagnostic Imaging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know MSU Imaging Services offers state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging right on MSU\u2019s campus?

Ask your provider if a telehealth visit is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthteam.msu.edu\/telehealth\/default.aspx\">MSU Health Care\u2019s Telehealth page<\/a> to learn more about how a virtual visit could work for you and your family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As MSU continues to function primarily remotely, the availability of health resources close to home such as flu shots, imaging services and telehealth visits matters now more than ever.
