New Covid-19 Vaccine

9/12/23, we are currently waiting for CDC’s decision on the release of the latest version of the Covid-19 vaccine.  They will also recommend to whom these shots should be offered.

However, these vaccines are no longer free of charge.  State of Oklahoma will be sending few doses to each Health Department.  As of now, there are no indications that these vaccines are covered by any insurance company.  We expect them to be covered, however it will be up to each individual company.  The least expensive version of this vaccine for any age is at least 10 times the cost of the Flu vaccine.

Due to the continued decline in the mortality rate of those who contract Covid currently, the cost of the vaccine, and the uncertainties of the reimbursement from the insurance companies, Classen Urgent Care and Classen Family Practice will not be carrying this vaccine at this time.  We will be reviewing this policy frequently and will update it when needed.

Masks are now optional for all

classen medical complex

We were the first medical facility to make masks mandatory for all staff and later for all patients entering our facilities.

We have been involved in this pandemic from the beginning.  We have been monitoring our number of positive COVID patients for months, as well we have also been monitoring the flu, its prevalence and its complications.

Although CDC removed all mask restrictions including those for medical facilities months ago, we held out and maintained our mandatory mask policy for employees until now!

Although it remains our policy to encourage all to protect themselves and others at all times, we are now making it optional for our employees to wear masks.

MonkeyPox Vaccine and the new COMBO COVID vaccine

We have limited supply of Monkeypox vaccine for those who qualify and are at high risk.

Soon we should have the Moderna /SPIKEVAX booster for COVID-19 that is supposed to cover for the Omicron strain as well.  Anyone, 12 and older, who’s gone through the original MRNA vaccine series and has had at least 4 months since the last shot qualifies to get this vaccine.  We will update once this vaccine arrives.

More Restrictions on the use of MonoClonal Antibodies for COVID-19

Recently NIH updated their recommendations for treatment of COVID-19.  The guidelines dictates that before using MCA’s, one must consider and rule out the use of Paxlovid and/or Remdesivir.  It is very likely that the insurance companies will follow this guidelines.  This means a valid reason must me present to chose MCA’s over the other two and superiority of this medication is not good enough.  Lack of a valid reason will mean that the patient will be responsible for the entire cost.  Soon MCA’s will be available commercially and not through the government.  Although, this will increase the accessibility to this medication, but at $2100 plus per dose, not a whole lot of folks will be able to afford it.  Please take care of yourselves, we are expecting a much higher than normal volume for this flu season.
