Now is a great time to schedule a flu shot at the Garrett County Health Department. In fact, there is a new, very easy online registration process to schedule an appointment. In order to comply with COVID-19 precautions, flu vaccines are appointment only this year. Using this online system, patients can register themselves and their children.
This registration process is open for appointments beginning in November:
- Log on to bit.ly/mdfluvax. Note: Any field marked with an asterisk is required.
- Select desired date and location – clinics are available in Oakland and Grantsville. (If you want a Grantsville appointment, you may need to scroll down pretty far until you find one listed as Grantsville.)
- Appointment time will be chosen near the end of the process.
- Complete all required demographics fields, clicking “save and continue.”
- Email is a required field. No email? Make up a “dummy email” in order to advance to the next screen.
- Have insurance card ready to enter policy and group number. No insurance? Choose that drop-down option.
Write down the date and time of the appointment and remember to come get vaccinated!
Having problems and need assistance during the scheduling/registration process? Call the health department at 301 334-7697. A staff member will assist you over the phone.
