Not necessarily: The value to you remains but your chances of having it paid for by insurance are minimal.Insurers with plans that cover vaccines usually limit their coverage to the age groups defined by the FDA when it was licensed for use.This includes age 9-26yrs. The vaccine could help you prevent strains to which you have never been exposed, including those associated with cancer.
