My understanding was that shingles vaccinations were not covered. I got one anyway. Never got billed for it. But I see no indication in my records of whether Medicare paid or whether Blue Cross did.

I read now that shingles vaccinations are covered by Medicare as a drug, not as a procedure, so the coverage would be according to your drug plan.
