Timing of vaccine eligibility is set by the California Department of Public Health, with phases defined by age and in some cases occupation. Please visit this page for the very latest information and regular updates as new groups are added for vaccination in the weeks and months to come.

We are now able to schedule vaccination appointments through MyHealth for:

• Health care workers
• Individuals 65+ 

Starting February 28, persons at risk of occupational exposure to SARS-CoV-2 through their work in any role in the following sectors will be eligible:

• Education and childcare (including staff and any other workers involved in child and/or student care)
• Emergency services
• Agriculture and food

Many Stanford Health Care patients may have access to vaccine through county resources beyond those offered by Stanford Health Care. We encourage you to get vaccinated where convenient and in the most safe and timely manner possible. We will continue to update you as more vaccines are received and made available for distribution, and will continue to partner with our local county health authorities to reach individuals who do not have access to primary care providers.

The actual vaccination purchased and distributed by government agencies is free of charge. However, there is a cost to administer the vaccination. This cost will be billed and paid by your insurance or government program. There’s no out-of-pocket cost to you to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

Medicare and Medi-Cal have provided guidance that the vaccine administration should be billed directly to the government program instead of the HMO to simplify the administration and tracking. We require the correct member ID number to properly bill/report to the government program. There’s no out-of-pocket cost to you to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
