DOES MEDICARE COVER SHINGLES VACCINATIONS?

Medicare does NOT cover Shingles Vaccinations.  However; your Part D Drug Plan should cover the cost of the vaccination.  Any commercially available vaccine that is not covered by Part B should be covered by your Medicare prescription drug plan.

Before you get a vaccination, you should check with your Plan for coverage rules and see where you should get your shot so that it will be coverd for you at the lowest cost.
