***** NOTICE REGARDING IMMUNIZATIONS POLICY *****

 

Effective February 1, 2012

 

Due to changes in the publicly funded Children’s Vaccine Program (VFC);

Parents of children with insurance policies that cover vaccines, policies that have high deductibles or policies that have co-pays

WILL NO LONGER BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE VACCINES

at the immunization clinics which are sponsored by the Daviess County Health Department.

Those who have insurance coverage will need to obtain their vaccines from their private medical provider.

There will be NO changes for children who have any form of Medicaid or who have no health insurance (uninsured).

These children will continue to receive vaccines through the clinics which are sponsored by the Daviess County Health Department.

Each child’s eligibility for vaccines through the VFC program will be assessed at each immunization clinic.
