MASTA confirms changes to the seasonal flu vaccination
From October 2019, the MASTA entry for the seasonal flu vaccine will be removed from your MYS claim form.
The community pharmacy seasonal influenza vaccination advanced service is now live. No registration or de-registration is required for the 2019/20 flu service. But and pharmacists need to submit claims via Manage Your Service (MYS).
MASTA has confirmed that they will now be supplying the Sanofi Quadrivalent(e). Any future claims for reimbursement should therefore be claimed under Sanofi Quadrivalent(e) on your MYS digital claim form.
The MASTA entry will still be available up to and including the September 2019 submission.
Any community pharmacy in England can provide the #PharmacyFlu service, as long as it:
- has a consultation room
- can procure the vaccination
- can meet the data recording requirements
- has appropriately trained staff
Visit the NHS Business Service Authority (NHSBSA) website for more information and a step by step guide to submitting your flu vaccination claim online.
