Office Visit Fee If no insurance. This is for all new (first time) visits, and all established (not first time) "99214" visits.

If you think you will soon have insurance: We can try to backbill visits when insurance gets reinstated; if we are paid we can then refund you (so credit card is easier for us).

Immunizations - Shots - Vaccines - Jabs
We record all shots immediately directly in the state immunization registry

Vaccine administration. 

Adult Shots
1. If you have Medicaid or other insurance, you get these free.
2. Medicare only covers flu, pneumonia (ppsv23), and hepB (and zoster but not by an outpatient doctor).
3. Uninsured (and cicp) have to pay these prices, but you may qualify to get MMR and Varicella discounted to $25, based on your income (the ones with ***).

This is handy for Green Card shots: Most adults need Varicella x2, MMR x2, Td x3 (one being TdaP), and flu if September-March. That is, you need MMR+Var+Tdap, then at least 1 month later MMR+Var+Td, then at least 6 months later Td (+ maybe flu); but you may not need to wait the 6 months for the last shot to apply for your card.
