Vaccination is one of the safest and most convenient preventive care measures available!

Discounted Immunizations

Most children qualify for one of the State of Wyoming’s discounted immunization programs (see criteria below). Patients will be subject to a vaccine administration fee in accordance with State of Wyoming immunization program guidelines.

Vaccines For Children (VFC) Program

The Vaccines for Children (VFC) program is a federally-funded program that provides vaccines at no cost to children who might not otherwise be vaccinated because of inability to pay. VFC-eligible children are those who are age 18 and under and are eligible for Medicaid, uninsured, American Indian/Alaskan Native, or underinsured (where required vaccines are not covered by the individual’s health insurance plan).

Wyoming Vaccinates Important People (WyVIP) Program

The WyVIP program was created after the enactment of the Childhood Immunization Act (2006) to provide appropriation for vaccines for children who are not VFC-eligible. Children who are Wyoming residents, 18 years and under, and do not qualify for VFC vaccine are eligible for WyVIP vaccine. The following vaccines are NOT available through the WyVIP program: influenza vaccine, Hepatitis A vaccine, meningococcal vaccine, and HPV vaccine. For those vaccines not covered by WyVIP, patients will be charged based on the clinic’s current fee schedule.
