Help is available to pay for the HPV vaccine.
The Immunization Program provides the vaccine for Medicaid-eligible kids up to age 19, under the Vaccines for Children Program, and for adults with no insurance under the Section 317 Program. Public health clinics also provide the vaccine at no cost.
If you don’t have insurance or can’t afford the HPV vaccine, there is a program that could pay for the visit to get the vaccine.
