Cash or insurance?
At the one hospital here that publishes insurer rates for this code, the cash price is not below the highest rate a health plan has negotiated. If you have insurance but have not met your deductible, you usually pay your plan's negotiated rate, which falls somewhere in the "Insurers pay" column. Paying cash can cost less, but a cash payment usually does not count toward your deductible. Ask the hospital for both numbers before you book.
What it is
Shingrix is the recombinant vaccine that protects against shingles (herpes zoster). The CDC recommends two doses, 2 to 6 months apart, for adults 50 and older and for adults 19 and older with a weakened immune system.
What the price covers
The price is for one dose of the vaccine. Giving the shot is usually a separate line (code 90471 for the first vaccine of the visit), and the full series takes two doses.
