Anthem’s policy on Shingles Vaccine **NEW UPDATE**

As of 12/7/2012, Anthem has removed the age restriction from the Shingles vaccine. Previously only adults age 50 and up were eligible to receive coverage for this, but now, it is covered for all adults.

Anthem's Shingle Vaccine Update!

For the last several months, Anthem's shingle vaccine age minimum has been 50.  However, that is all about to change once again.  Effective 11/16/2012, Anthem will be changing the age back to 60.  For anyone interested in the vaccine who may be between the ages of 50 and 60 and have Anthem insurance may want to get the vaccine while it will be covered for them.  Otherwise, you will have to pay full out of pocket expense or wait until you are at the minimum age.  If you have any questions about this update, please feel free to contact the Customer Care Team!
