1. Will my insurance pay for vaccine?

Before you come in for a vaccination please check with your health insurance company to see what vaccines are covered, if you are locked in to a provider or if there is a deductible you must pay.

2. Why does my child need a Tdap at age 11 or older?

A second dose is recommended to boost immunity to these diseases because the immunity developed may lessen over time.

3. Should a caregiver get a Tdap?

Pertussis can cause serious illness, hospitalization and even death — especially in infants who are too young to be well-protected by vaccines. Because vaccine protection fades over time, parents and other caregivers of infants need to get Tdap vaccine to protect against pertussis as well as tetanus and diphtheria.
