Paying for Vaccines

Due to the end of the public health emergency, COVID-19 vaccine costs are no longer covered by emergency funding. For most people, health insurance should cover all or most of the cost of vaccination. Individuals who are underinsured or uninsured may also qualify to receive reduced cost vaccinations.
Individuals should bring their insurance card(s) to Walk-in Wednesdays to ensure the vaccines are covered. Wyandot County Public Health staff will check insurance coverage over the phone when scheduling appointments and for those interested in verifying coverage before attending walk-in clinics.
