Title: We ARE Covered for Shingles Vaccine
Post by: Buzz on October 20, 2023, 04:46:25 PM

A couple of drivers mentioned recently that they got the Shingles vaccine and that our coverage was accepted. I remember some years ago being told that we were NOT covered for that vaccine.

I called Blue Cross/Shield (which is becoming Anthem instead of Empire) this morning and the representative told me it is covered in full, which is a good thing because the 2 doses (6 months apart I believe) costs $350 to $400!

Good idea to go for it. Shingles can be very painful, even debilitating.
