On top of vaccination costs, a physician’s office incurs costs to purchase, store and administer vaccinations, yet insurance companies often reimburse an amount less than the cost of the vaccination alone. Dr. Berkelhamer, President of the American Academy of Pediatrics, addresses the serious problem of trying to vaccinate all children yet keep the physicians from losing money in the process.
