Travel Clinic Fees
Travel office visits range between $40-$60 depending on time and complexity of visit. This does not include the price of the vaccinations. Most insurances do not cover travel vaccines. Prices may vary depending on current vaccine prices. Routine vaccinations can be billed to most insurance companies or can be offered on a sliding fee scale. Travel vaccines for children and adults, such as yellow fever or typhoid, cannot be offered on a sliding fee scale. Payment is due at time of service.
