Childhood vaccine cost in Puerto Rico without insurance
In Puerto Rico, the median cash price for Hepatitis B vaccine (child) is $132.70 across 2 hospitals, from $84.75 to $180.64. The lowest is at Mayaguez Medical Center (Mayaguez). The US median is $61.75.
Each childhood vaccine has its own code for the dose, and giving each shot is a separate administration fee (90471 for the first vaccine of a visit, 90472 for each additional one), so a well-baby visit with four vaccines has eight lines before the office visit itself. Most children without insurance can get every vaccine on the CDC schedule free through the Vaccines for Children program, which makes a hospital's cash price a fallback rather than the first option.

Childhood vaccine prices in Puerto Rico by type
The CDC schedule gives most of these vaccines in two to five doses between birth and age six, so multiply the per-dose price. Combination vaccines (Pediarix, Pentacel, Vaxelis, ProQuad) replace two to four separate shots with one, which also means fewer administration fees.

Paying cash: what to do
- Ask your pediatrician or health department about the Vaccines for Children program first: for an eligible child the vaccine is free and the administration fee can be waived.
- Ask whether the self-pay price is per dose and whether it includes the administration fee (90471 and 90472), then count the doses left in each series.
- Ask whether a combination vaccine is available: one shot instead of three usually costs less in total.
