Good news for Washington families!
The Washington Legislature passed HB 2242, protecting access to vaccines recommended by the Washington State Department of Health.
What this means for our patients:
✔ Vaccines will continue to be covered by insurance
✔ No cost-sharing passed to families
✔ Protection of programs like Vaccines for Children (VFC)
We’ve heard from several families worried about potential vaccine costs, and we’re glad to share that Washington State has taken steps to protect vaccine access.
If you have questions about what this means for your family or your insurance coverage, please reach out to our office — we’re happy to help.
