COVID-19 Vaccine

What type(s) of vaccine is/are available?

Currently we are only offering the Moderna vaccine. The FDA has authorized the emergency use of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine to prevent COVID-19 in individuals 18 years of age and older under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA).

How do I make a COVID-19 vaccine appointment?

Administration of the COVID-19 vaccine is a coordinated effort with county and state public agencies. To ensure adequate supply, an appointment is required. Appointments must be made on the My Turn website. We are providing both first and second doses.

If you are having difficulty with this site, you may contact the Public Support line at 833.422.4255 between the hours of 8 AM-8 PM Monday through Friday and 8 AM-5PM Saturdays and Sundays.

How much will it cost?

The the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act requires group health plans to provide cost-free coverage of COVID-19 vaccines and their administration during the national public health emergency period without prior authorization.  Providers are prohibited by agreement with the U.S. Government from billing patients for the vaccine or its administration, including balance billing.

 In the event your COVID-19 visit is not covered by your healthcare insurance, or reimbursement is paid to the patient, you will be responsible for your payment to Coastal Family Urgent Care. It will be your obligation to obtain and submit the proper information to your health insurance company for reimbursement for payment to ensure there is no out of pocket cost to you.

What if I don’t have health insurance?

The HRSA COVID-19 Uninsured Program and Coverage Assistance Fund is no longer accepting claims due to a lack of sufficient funds.

Alternative resources for uninsured individuals who need COVID-19 services or other health care coverage include:

• Medicaid enrollment

• Healthcare marketplace enrollment

• COVIDTests.gov

• HRSA.gov – Find a Health Center

What should I expect at my appointment? 

PLEASE NOTE: You will be required to bring a copy of a form of ID and your health insurance card at the time of your visit.

Vaccines will be administered in our office.  We ask for you to continue to wear a mask  in our office to protect our patients who are unvaccinated or immunocompromised. Please expect your visit to be at least 30 minutes in duration.  This is to ensure the necessary information is accurate and complete and you are monitored for any adverse reactions.
