The Livingston County Department of Public Health (LCDPH) Immunization Clinic provides vaccines for children, teens and adults.  Our clinic is a walk-in clinic and does not make appointments.  The clinic is open on Wednesdays only from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m., with extended hours on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month until 7:00 p.m.  

LCDPH participates in the Vaccine for Children (VFC) program that covers the cost of the vaccine for children who are eligible for the program.  Children age birth through 18 years are eligible for the VFC program if they: 

 have Medicaid insurance (Medicaid will be billed)
 -  do not have health insurance
 -  have American Indian or Alaska Native
 -  have health insurance that does not cover the cost of the vaccination.

LCDPH also has special programs that may pay for certain vaccines for adults 19 years and older who are uninsured or underinsured.  (Helping Adults Pay for Vaccines)

An administration fee of $16.75 will be charged for each vaccine for children and adults eligible for the VFC and special adult vaccine programs.  Fees may be adjusted depending on ability to pay.

LCDPH does not bill commercial insurance companies.  If you have private insurance, you should check with your health insurance provider for possible immunization benefit coverage.  Adults and children with private insurance coverage can receive vaccines, but will be charged the cost of the vaccine in addition to the vaccine administration fee. The administration fee for private vaccine is $20.00 per vaccine received for adults and $16.75 per vaccine received for children.

We may be able to bill Medicaid and Medicare B for adults depending on their type of coverage and vaccines requested.  Please call for more information.

TB skin tests are done on Wednesdays from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. on a walk-in basis.  You must return to the Health Department after 48 hours to have the test read.  There is a charge of $20.00.
