Our insurance did not cover it, but my personal preference was to not go to the health department. I'm glad the health department is not charging an administration fee. This gives everyone who chooses to get the shot an opportunity to do so. Our pediatrician charged $19 per child for the H1N1 vaccination.

Most people are more than willing to transfer anyway when they experience a Publix pharmacy and realize that the prices are very competitive and the customer service better than any other pharmacy chain.

Honestly $10 is not even enough to cover the vaccinating pharmacist's salary for the 15 minutes they'll spend processing the paperwork, preparing, and giving the injection so the company is still losing money.
