I just got my booster at Walgreens, even though the pharmacy tried to tell me that ~unfortunately~ my (state provided) insurance doesn't cover Covid boosters anymore

So I said according to https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/programs/bridge/index.html I should be able to get it free of change no matter what, & https://www.vaccines.gov/ lists this Walgreens location as a provider, so how can we fix this? They said they needed to "check some things", & then I magically got it for free instead of $155.99

@Louisa that's so weird. so in my state some insurances including Medicaid weren't covering them the first week my Walgreens got them. We ended up using the government funded free plan for uninsured patients. But that was week one of getting the thing so we expected bumps in the system but it's been around for a while now, they should have that stuff handled 😡
