COVID-19

Updated COVID-19 Vaccine Coming Soon!

The distribution of COVID-19 vaccines changed in September 2023 as these products moved onto the commercial market.  COVID-19 vaccines are still covered at no cost for most people living in the U.S. through their private health insurance, Medicare and Medicaid plans.  You can still get vaccinated at no cost if you’re uninsured or your plan doesn’t cover the vaccine.

COVID-19 Vaccines/Insurance:

Administration fees are billed to commercial / Medicaid plans for any insured patients. Uninsured patients will be covered by HRSA.

It is important to know that all patients enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan will need to provide their new MBI # for traditional Medicare (red, white, blue card).  The administration fee must be billed to traditional Medicare.  Please visit this link for more information –  https://www.medicare.gov/media/9521

For questions, or to provide your MBI#, please call Mariposa’s Billing Office at 520-987-4023.

What can you do to help prevent the spread of COVID-19?

COVID-19 is spread person to person when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It is also possible to get COVID-19 by touching a surface where the virus is present and then touching your mouth, nose of eyes. To minimize the risk please include the following in your daily lives:

• Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
• If available, use an alcohol-based sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol
• Cover your coughs and sneezes; wash your hands immediately after
• Keep your hands away from your face
• Avoid sick people if possible
