Ensuring Access to Free Vaccines for Uninsured and Underinsured Individuals

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of widespread vaccination cannot be understated. While many individuals have access to vaccines through insurance coverage, there are still those who may be uninsured or underinsured. The good news is that free vaccines are still available through a variety of channels, including local health departments, community organizations, and the Vaccines for Children Program.

For the past year, the CDC’s Bridge Access Program has been instrumental in providing free COVID-19 vaccines to uninsured and underinsured Americans. However, recent social media claims suggest that this program may be coming to an end with the introduction of the latest COVID-19 booster vaccines.

Addressing the Claim

Concerns have been raised about the CDC ending its program to provide free COVID-19 vaccines for uninsured and underinsured individuals. While the Bridge Access Program is indeed coming to a close, there are alternative options for those without insurance coverage.

Exploring Solutions

This is true.

The CDC’s updated COVID-19 vaccines mark the conclusion of the Bridge Access Program, which offered free vaccinations to uninsured and underinsured individuals. Despite this change, free vaccines are still accessible through various avenues.

Private insurance, Medicaid, and Medicare will cover the cost of the latest COVID-19 vaccines for most individuals. For those who are underinsured or uninsured, options such as local health departments and community organizations remain available for obtaining free or low-cost vaccinations.

Children under 18 may qualify for free COVID-19 vaccines through the Vaccines for Children Program. Additionally, clinics operated by local or state health departments, as well as community organizations, can provide free or affordable vaccines to those in need.

While the Bridge Access Program may be ending, efforts to ensure vaccine access for all individuals, regardless of insurance status, continue to be a priority.

For more information and resources, individuals can reach out to their local health department through this directory.
