Measles
is on the Rise. Vaccinations are Covered.
Measles – one of the most highly contagious
diseases – frequently causes severe illness and can
potentially be fatal. There is a common misconception that
adults do not need vaccinations if they received them as a
child, however immunity can wear off over time.
If your members interact frequently with
young grandchildren under the age of one, family members
who are pregnant or other vulnerable groups, you can remind
them that CDC-recommended adult vaccinations (including the
administration fee) are covered as preventive care for all
UnitedHealthcare Medicare members.
