Insurers' Stance on Kids' Vaccine Coverage Without Government Recommendations
Major insurers are uncertain about whether they will continue to cover childhood vaccines if the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) stops recommending certain vaccines, following a recent review of the vaccination schedule and changes in committee membership led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Only Blue Shield of California confirmed it would maintain coverage, while others are monitoring the situation. The review and political shifts have raised concerns about the future of vaccine coverage and public health policy.
