Will insurance pay for Gardasil when you are 26, or do you have to be under 26?


Answer:
It will depend entirely on your insurance company. You need to call your provider and ask.I was under the assumption that Gardasil wasn't given to anyone over the age of 26. That has nothing to do with insurance but it is FDA guidelines.
You have to call your insurance company to find out this info. No one on here can have clue as you didn't even say what insurance you have.
Some do, and some don't. You'd have to ask your particular insurance company.
The recommended ages for Gardasil vaccination are 8 to 26. Regardless of your insurance, I think you can make a case to have it paid for while you are still 26.
You have to call your insurance to find out if it covers it. I know that medicaid or medical won't though. My doctor told me that it costs around $170 to get the injections. She also said that it is effective under the age of 26 years old.
