Where did you guys go for your immunizations? I usually go to the pubilc health place in my hometown, but now i am in a city that does not offer immunizations to those with insurance. I could just go the clinic, but then i dont think the shots will be covered or cheap. Does anyone know of any other options? Thanks.
 
I got mine at student health, and boy were they pricey hepA/B run at about $75 each set. Funny how my student health insurance didn't cover a dime of it. F' those F'ing F'ers.
 
find your county's comprehensive health center.. they usually have the cheapest prices, and will offer shots with or without insurance.
 
I didn't have insurance until a few weeks ago. All I needed was a TB test and HepB, which was $30 and $70, respectively. Of course, you have to follow up with the 2nd and 3rd rounds for the HepB.
 
I dunno how it is in other cities but in NYC, there are clinics where you go in and ask for a sliding scale payment. So, depending on how much you make, they charge you on that amount. You have to show proof of income though. It was $10 to do all the titers including MMR, hepB, and tb plus physical. I'd suggest calling up clinics or hospitals to see what their policy is.
