Vaccinations

Childhood Immunizations
The Marietta City Health Department’s immunization clinic is going through some changes, due to a change in the Ohio Department of Health’s vaccine program. In the past, we have received vaccine for free from the Ohio Department of Health. Unfortunately, this is changing and we now need to privately purchase vaccine for our immunization program. Due to these high costs and requirements from The Ohio Department of Health, we will need to see your child’s insurance card at each visit and your insurance will be billed for your child’s immunizations. The Ohio Department of Health does still offer vaccinations for children with no insurance.

All required vaccines are offered at the Marietta City Health Department. Medicaid and most insurances are accepted. To see if your child’s vaccination record is up-to-date or for more information about childhood immunizations, please call 740-373-0611.
