  1. Here in my state, Indiana - $0.
    Our state health departments immunize for free. In fact, most dr's offices around here won't do it, but they refer you to the state health dept clinic.

  2. Go to your local health department. Some if not all of the shots will be free.

  3. If you're in the USA, call your county health department. They charge on a sliding fee scale (they go by your current income), and her immunizations should cost less than $100.

  4. a lot if you go to your doctor…check the local health dept….they are ususlly cheap/free.

    Contact your health department. They may offer them for free or at a discount until you get your insurance. If you are getting her put on government assisted insurance then you don't need the card immediately. You just let the pediatrician know you haven't received it yet. This is probably true for regular insurance, too, if you have already applied.

    call your local health dept. it's either free or very low in cost

  7. Take her to the public health clinic and see if you can get them free. I never was without insurance so I don't have the faintest idea what they cost if you have to pay cash.

    call the human services dept. in you area. ask about it, and they should have a list of free or low-cost places.

    in tx, you can call 211 and get all the info you need.

    Try your county health department. They usually have immunizations available for minimal cost.

    Go prepared to wait, though.

  10. Don't know. Believe it or not, our doc. office wouldn't accept personal payment! I had to have her put on my insurance before we could get them done. The answer about the health dept. was a good one - you could check into that maybe.

  11. Waiting on 10/22 Says:

    Go to your local health dept instead of a Dr office. It will cost you very little.

    if you have insurance & are just waiting for her to be added, the Dr's ofc should be able to call the insurance co. and get an authorization. With group coverage that I've been part of, the child is covered at birth. You just have to get them the info asap so they can add the child to the coverage.

    Our insurance had issues & didn't pay for my son's 1st few sets of vaccines & it was totalling about $500. Our clinic doesn't accept medicaid, only private payments and insurance. But if you don't have insurance, they will work out payment arrangements with you. Call your pediatricians ofc and ask them about your situation. You may just have to delay the shots by a couple months. Being just a couple months off track isn't that big a deal b/c sometimes they will be sick when they are due for shots & will have to wait.

    And again, check with your local health dept. They provide care based on your income and often have health fairs where you can get immunizations for free.

    Good Luck!
