In this episode of Healthcare Matters, Dr. Robert Popovian breaks down the complex but critical connection between vaccine policy and access in the United States. Our hosts examine how guidance from the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) can affect not only where patients can get vaccinated but also whether healthcare providers are reimbursed for administering those vaccines.

From immunization reimbursement to state scope-of-practice laws, Dr. Popovian outlines real-world barriers and provides practical solutions needed to ensure vaccines reach the people who need them most.
