Editor's Note: The following is a press release from Dakota County Public Health services.

Dakota County Public Health provides reduced fee immunizations for people who are eligible for Minnesota Vaccines for Children (MnVFC) vaccine. There is a $14 administration fee, but if a person who is eligible is not able to pay
the fee they can still be immunized. Persons who have private insurance that covers immunizations are not eligible for MnVFC vaccine and should contact their private medical provider. Some vaccines are available for a fee for
persons who do not qualify for MnVFC vaccine. Call 952-891-7528 for information on vaccines and cost.

MnVFC Eligibility Guidelines

• Children 18 years of age and younger who do not have health insurance

• Children on a Minnesota Health Care Program - MA, MnCare, or PMAP (Please bring your medical card)

• Children who are American Indian or Alaskan Native

• Children who have health insurance that does not cover vaccinations

• Children who have health insurance with an unmet deductible

• Adults (19 and older) may qualify for some vaccinations; check our website at www.dakotacounty.us (search “Vaccines for Adults”) or call 952-891-7528 for eligibility guidelines and vaccine availability.
