I had the TDAP, HepB, Flu, and TB done today at the Health Department. The total cost for those 4 was $140.13. I then had Titers drawn for MMR and Chickenpox at AnyLabTestNow in Homewood by TCBY. The total for the Titers was $178.00. So total for today was $318.13. I have to go back to the health department on Friday to have my TB read, if my titers come back negative, then I'll have the MMR and Chickenpox on Friday also. The wait at both places was surprisingly short, I was the only person waiting at both locations.

Hope this helps!

Thanks aheart. And that's the price out of pocket and can insurance help pay for those?

That is out of pocket price with no insurance applied. They should be covered under insurance, but I would call and check. If so, you can probably just go to your normal doctor and just pay the copay, MUCH cheaper!

Right! So the health department doesn't administer titers I assume.

@Humblyme - That's correct, they do not administer Titers.

Make sure you have your background screen done before orientation. It is not free but you still need to have it done.

You know what would b great? If Jeff state offered a free day care service for students with little ones. It is going to b tough to sync daycare schedule with class schedule.

I went to the health department today and got my first hep b and tdap. all my others (MMR) my pediatrician had and filled out the form showing i was vacinated for those as a child.so in total I spent $103. Im going monday to get tb test done. shots at the health dept are way less expensive,but if you can get your records you will save a lot more. that MMR is $60 and you must have 2 i jections and wait 30 days inbetween as well as the varicella is $112 and you must have 2 of those and wait 30 days in between.so long story short locate your records!

Remember the papers say the MMR and Chicken Pox vaccination must have happened within the last year. If you didn't have a vaccination within the last year, make sure you get the titer.
