Other than age and not meeting at least one of eligibility requirements for the VFC program are there any other factors that would make a child ineligible to receive vaccine through the VFC program?
No. As long as the child is under 19 years of age and meets at least one of the following eligibility criteria: enrolled in Medicaid, uninsured, American Indian/Alaska Native, or underinsured (can only receive VFC vaccine through a FQHC or RHC) the child is eligible to participate in the VFC program. No other factors can be considered when screening children for eligibility for participation in the VFC program (e.g. residency status or family income).
