August is National Immunization Awareness Month and I am providing a link fro the US Department of Health and Human Services. This is sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Center for Immunizations and Respiratory Diseases. There is a menu on the left side of this web page that you will find helpful, but if you will click on the tab for health care reform, it’s going to pop up preventive services for adults, women (including pregnant women) and preventive services for children.

As we prepare our kids to go back to school, please take advantage of your wellness and preventive benefits on your health insurance (included in your health insurance toolkit). Your child’s physical, if timing works on your behalf, may serve the needs for the athletic departments as well. This particular link is also formatted in Spanish for your convenience. I encourage you to share this with anybody, but particularly parents. If you have any questions about your insurance, please be sure to give us a call.
