Vaccines for Children & adult vaccine coverage

absorbedYear 1Federal programs

Today

VFC buys vaccines for Medicaid and uninsured children; adult coverage varies by payer.

Under the plan

UHP covers all recommended vaccines for everyone; VFC folds into the formulary.

Trade-off

Universal vaccine coverage; politicization of vaccine recommendations directly affects coverage.
