What were they expecting when the government stopped paying for it? We already know the normal American healthcare system is garbage, this is the result of that.
It cost me $400 to get my gf and her son vaccinated, that'll get reimbursed by insurance... eventually, probably. That's going to be a barrier for a lot of people, just like always.
They did? I got mine at Walgreens, not even a mention of payment or insurance. I just walked in, got it, walked out.
Hi, I'm a pharmacist
They probably did an eligibility check and found your insurance using the info you provided on the consent form.
If you're in the non insured group, they are partnered with the government to have it covered regardless
Impressive since that means that Walgreens just ate the cost of your shot.
...I doubt that
Probably insurance on file?
Maybe not https://lemmy.world/comment/4842292
Tell them you don't have insurance, also refuse to show them your ID. The vaccine is free to anyone who wants it in territory controlled by the US government. Last booster I got I stood my ground.
Insurance?
Doesn't matter since the vaccine is free
So you don't have insurance?
Again. Vaccine is free.
I need your insurance information.
No, you really don't. The bill goes to the US government not the insurance company and you are clearly asking so your employer can get me into your system. I don't have to say anything about my insurance and I won't. So if you want to write down no on your form you can but I am not going to tell you one way or another.
