Immunizations for students with Cardinal Care

As a result of legislation under the Affordable Care Act, some routine, preventive immunizations are now covered by insurance plans at no cost share to members.  For students with Cardinal Care, the following immunizations are offered through Vaden Health Center at no charge to the student.

Covered Preventive Immunizations

Hepatitis A

Hepatitis B

Human papillomavirus (HPV) up to age 45

Seasonal Influenza

Measles, Mumps, Rubella

Meningococcal

Pneumococcal (for patients with asthma, smokers, or age >65)

Non Covered Immunizations (see pricing below)

Japanese Encephalitis

Inactivated Poliovirus (if over age 17)

Rabies

Typhim (injectible typhoid vaccine)

Oral typhoid

Yellow Fever 

Immunizations for students with private insurance

Students without Cardinal Care will be charged by Vaden Health Center for all immunizations, other than seasonal influenza.  Students may seek reimbursement from their private insurance company, but there is no guarantee of payment.  Alternatively, students may go to a provider who is in the private insurance network for the maximum benefit level.  See applicable charges below.

These prices are applicable for students who do not have coverage through Cardinal Care and/or when the immunization is not considered preventive under the Affordable Care Act (such as when the immunization is given for travel):
