Me, I left the moyle a nice tipI left the nurse a nice tip.
My understanding is they take you insurance information, if you have insurance, and charge them. Is that true?No. Has anyone?

A better question would be "How much would you be willing to pay for the vaccines?"Paid.

Sounds like they are getting vaccinated because Biden said nursing home employees have to be if they want to keep their jobs.My wife was Vaccinated through her nursing facility back in Dec and Jan at no charge. I got mine at a pharmacy in march at no charge. My wife is actually getting paid to be vaccinated.
Due to Biden's mandate on nursing home staff being required to be vaccinated, my wife's employer has started offering a bonus of $500 ($250 per shot) to those who are vaccinated.
It is funny that quite a few people that were so against it, claiming it experimental, dangerous, microchips, etc are now getting their first shot today to receive their bonus.

Not sure what full price will be. I know one of the diabetic meds I take is about $1500 a month. If I didn't get assistance I couldn't afford it. Those who don't have insurance or have crappy insurance might not be able to afford the vaccines either. I guess they would just have to take their chances. There will be a day coming when it's not free.Full price. If you don't get vaccinated, you want to get sick and die.

You don't think the price will go up once it becomes mandatory to get one?Full price of a COVID-19 vaccine is much cheaper than any prescription drug because you only need two shots and millions of people get them. Treating diabetes requires taking shots and/or pills more than once a day every day for the patient's entire life.

I'll look into it.Read all about vaccine pricing. How much do influenza shots cost? Polio shots? MMR shots? Chickenpox shots? For females, HPV shots?

You can only compare vaccine prices to other vaccine prices.
On a quick look it seems they are price gouging. Of course the vaccines are currently being sold in bulk. The price will change when that's no longer the case or your local doctor or hospital jack up the price to make a profit.New analysis by the Alliance shows that the firms Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna are charging governments as much as $41 billion above the estimated cost of production. Colombia, for example, has potentially overpaid by as much as $375 million for its doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines, in comparison to the estimated cost price.
