Ensuring Funds for Childhood Vaccines
The Washington Vaccine Association’s (WVA) work as an independent, nonprofit organization allows Washington State to provide vaccines for all children under the age of 19. Health plans and other payers reimburse WVA for vaccines. The WVA collects these payments and transfers the funds to the State Department of Health where its Childhood Vaccine Program purchases vaccines at federal contract rates and distributes vaccines to physicians, hospitals, and other providers at no charge.
