Yeah, you would think the shots should be covered 100% given that it should, in my opinion, be considered preventative medicine. I have Humana Advantage in GA. My portion was $153.83 at Walmart Pharmacy. I'm not complaining about the cost especially considering the alternative. I wonder how much more than the $153.83 it would have cost Humana had I contracted Shingles?
