Vaccines for Children

Vaccines for Children Program

The Utah Vaccines for Children (VFC) Program provides vaccines to participating providers for children birth through 18 years of age who are:

• Enrolled in Medicaid
• Enrolled in the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
• American Indian/Alaskan Native
• Not insured
• Under-insured* (insurance does not cover immunizations)

*Under-insured children may receive VFC-supplied vaccines only at Federally Qualified Health Centers
(FQHC) or Medicare Certified Rural Health Centers RHC).

NOTE: VFC providers (local health departments and private providers) can vaccinate under-insured patients with their own privately-purchased vaccine and follow their clinic policies for collection of payment. Please check with your provider to determine if this option is available.
