*Prepayment makes your appointment faster. No travel consultation required.
Unfortunately, Ontario does not apply the: “Once eligible, always eligible” vaccine policy, so individuals who do not receive a publicly-funded vaccine when it is first recommended are not always eligible to receive the vaccine anytime later.
This creates gaps in our vaccine protection for diseases like:
Thus, if you are indicated to safely receive vaccine and you do not qualify for via the Publicly Insured Ontario Schedule, we are happy to provide your vaccines which are often still covered via private health insurance plans.
No travel consultation fee is required to receive these vaccines. Patients are able to book directly with our nurses on the same day by contacting our office at 519-848-3798.
Examples of Gaps
Shingles
The Shingles vaccine (Shingrix) is publicly funded in Ontario presently only 65-70 years of age, but can be given to anyone 50+ who wishes not to wait, as shingles doesn’t care about your age. Shingles vaccine (Shingrix) is also approved in Canada for adults at increased risk of shingles due to immunodeficiency or immunosuppression age 18 plus. Shingrix can also can be administered to anyone 70 plus who did no previously receive their doses.
Most health insurance plans cover some or all this vaccine cost.
Pneumonia
Prevnar20, which is a conjugate vaccine is the preferred Pneumococcal vaccine according to NACI, but is not presently publicly funded.
If you wish purchase Prevnar20 and not wait for possible public coverage you may do so via our clinic.
Most health insurance plans cover some or all of this vaccine.
Meningitis B
This creates gaps in our vaccine protection for diseases like:
- Meningitis (infection of the lining of the brain and spinal cord)
- Sepsis (blood poisoning)
These infections require immediate medical attention. Bexsero indicates 2 months through 25 years of age. Trumenba indicates 10-25 years of age.
Most health insurance plans cover some or all this vaccine cost.
HPV
The HPV vaccine is publicly funded in Ontario for Grade 7s through the end of high school and select high risk groups.
If you missed your previous opportunity to prevent Head and Neck Cancers, Cervical Cancer, Genital Warts, Penile and Anal Cancers there is still time.
If not immunized, it is estimated that 75% of sexually active Canadians will have a HPV infection at some time. Even if an individual is already infected with one or more vaccine HPV type(s), the vaccine will provide protection against the other HPV type(s) contained in the vaccine.
Most health insurance plans cover some or all this vaccine cost.
