IF YOU HAVE MEDICARE, DO NOT GO HERE FOR VACCINATIONS. They do not bill Medicare for it properly and you WILL receive a bill. My husband and I went here to receive the Shingles vaccine, not knowing that Minute Clinic is NOT actually part of CVS, even though they are listed on the CVS website, and since the regular stores are overwhelmed due to the Covid vaccinations, we were urged to come here. Medicare will NOT accept it being billed as an urgent care visit, even though they pay for other urgent care services. It must be billed as a pharmacy item, and Minute Clinic WILL NOT do this. They just send a bill for the full amount to you. The stores also have no records of you being there. It took 6 phone calls to our insurer (Aetna Medicare Advantage HMO) plus Minute Clinic billing dept. (in Belfast, Maine) plus an in person trip to CVS headquarters in Woonsocket, RI to resolve this situation and get it billed properly. This is a fall through the cracks situation, and they really don't care about people on Medicare being stuck with big bills, they don't let you know up front in the clinic, or on their website, and they really should. It's a big disservice to us senior citizens, and I won't go there again for any reason. I still work and I don't have time to make several 45 minute phone calls to fix problems like this. I also don't have the money to pay $358. out of pocket for these shots, which Medicare will cover if billed properly. I have had problems in the past with Pneumonia shots, (at a regular CVS pharmacy) being told that it wasn't covered by my insurance and being made to pay $185. up front. I called the insurer the next day and found out that it was covered. I still get my prescriptions from CVS because they are affliated with Aetna, and because of that, I don't have a copay. If I were not saving money in this respect, I would go elsewhere entirely. I will also not buy anything in their stores, they are way overpriced. My advice, go to Walgreens for your vaccines, skip CVS and especially Minute Clinic. We went to Walgreens for the Covid booster shots and had no trouble at all getting appointments and no billing problems. read more
