General information, not an individual diagnosis. Ask a healthcare professional if you are unsure about your situation.
Are you a home helper directly employed by a private individual? When preparing for flu vaccination, clarify the route that applies to your job. An occupational recommendation alone does not establish your personal coverage.
Ameli includes helpers whose private employers receive specific exemptions, such as APA or PCH. Eligibility must be checked: this scheme does not automatically cover every caregiver.
Ameli says Urssaf emails an invitation to collect the vaccine at a pharmacy, listing the required documents.
Before travelling, ask: ‘Do this email and these documents match my situation?’ Prepare that question without unnecessarily sharing payslips or personal information about the person you support.
For this eligible category, the vaccine is covered at 100%, while the injection follows the usual coverage rules. Ask separately about any charges for administering the vaccine before the vaccination.
Service Public explains that an employee’s vaccination, when recommended because of their work, is organised by the employer. Clarify which route applies to your job before choosing your next step.

Flu and Covid-19: the 2026–2027 campaign
The national flu and Covid-19 vaccination campaign starts on 13 October 2026. In Doctolib, choose “Vaccination antigrippale (Grippe)” or “Vaccination COVID-19” for the vaccination you want to discuss.
Bring your carte Vitale and, for flu, your coverage voucher if you have one. The professional checks the recommendations and coverage conditions that apply to you.
The pharmacy checks whether vaccination and coverage apply based on the vaccine, your age and your circumstances.
