Vaccines for Children
The Vaccines for Children (VFC) program is a federally-funded program overseen by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and administered in Ohio by the Ohio Department of Health. The VFC program supplies vaccine at no cost to public and private health care providers who enroll and agree to immunize eligible children in their medical practice or clinic.
Which children are eligible to get these vaccines through the VFC program?
- Any child from birth through 18 years of age is eligible to receive VFC-supplied vaccine if he/she meets at least one of the following criteria:
- The child does not have health insurance.
- The child is enrolled in Medicaid (including Medicaid HMOs).
- The child is an American Indian or Alaskan Native.
- The child has health insurance that does not pay for vaccine (applicable only to children attending a Federally Qualified Health Center, Rural Health Clinic or local health department)
Visit the Ohio Department of Health’s website to learn more about vaccines for children.
