2 ACIP Approved New Vaccines
Possible Recommendation MCV4 Universal vaccination of 11/12 & 14/15 year olds Tdap Substitute Tdap for Td in adolescents and adults MMRV Combines MMR and varicella vaccine Rotavirus Universal vaccination of infants a

3 ACIP New Vaccines Currently Under Consideration
Possible Recommendation HPV Universal vaccination of adolescents and adults Zoster Universal vaccination of older adults a

4 ACIP Approved Expanded Use of Licensed Vaccines
Possible Expanded Recommendation Hepatitis A Universal vaccination of all children in the U. S. at 2 yrs of age Hepatitis B Increased focus on newborn vaccination in hospital Expansion of use in high risk adults a

5 ACIP Expanded Use of Licensed Vaccines Currently Under Consideration
Possible Expanded Recommendation Influenza Universal vaccination of all people >6 months of age- stepwise approach Varicella Second dose at 15/18 months of age or at 5 yrs of age a

6 Recommended Childhood and Adolescent Immunization Schedule:United States 2007-8

7 Meningococcal Vaccine Estimated Cost per Case Prevented
Strategy # of cases prevented $ per case $ per case prevented (excludes productivity loss) Infant (4 doses) 447 $1,923,000 $2,044,000 Toddler (1 dose) 436 $629,000 $741,000 Adolescent 282 $633,000 $845,000

8 Federal Contract Prices for Vaccines Universally Recommended for Children and Adolescents 1985 – 2005 $621 $155 $45 Federal contract price shown for 1985 and 1995 are averages that account for price changes within that year. The 2005 contract prices reflect prices on the Sept 1st, 2005. In 2005, Tdap replaced Td as the adolescent booster.

9 Percent Increase of the Cost of Full Series vs
Percent Increase of the Cost of Full Series vs. Percent Increase of Appropriation The 2005 estimate includes one dose of MCV4 and one dose of Tdap in adolescents.

11 Vaccine Purchase Policy: 50 States, DC, VI, PR: 2005

12 Childhood Vaccine Doses Distributed by Funding Source in 2004
Source: Biologics Surveillance Data 2004

13 Number of Children and Adolescents Who Could Potentially Receive Full Series with 317 funds
2005 estimate includes the cost to vaccinate one adolescent with one dose of Meningococcal and one dose of Td. 2004 and 2005 reflect new budget lines 1) Business Services Support and 2) Public Health Improvement & Leadership — which were created to the show CDC indirect cost assessments to programs Td was not included in the cost of the full series States negotiated their own contracts because there was no federal contract for this vaccine. TdaP is expected to be licensed and recommended in FY2006; CDC estimates the new vaccine may be used 50% of the time in adolescents and the current Td vaccine used the remaining 50% of the time.

14 Cost to Administer Three Vaccines
Medicaid average admin fee 2000 Fontanesi J et al. The Price of Prevention: Cost of Recommended Activities to Improve Immunization. Am J Prev Med 2003; 1:41-45.

15 Actual vs Allowable Medicaid VFC Vaccine Administration Fees in Each State- CY2000
* * Universal purchase states are allowed to develop their own maximum fees

16 ACIP Role in VFC Program
By statute: ACIP establishes, maintains, and revises the VFC vaccine list With regard to VFC resolutions, Congress has indicated that ACIP should conduct its work objectively Only concerns: public health and medicine Work separated from budget considerations Only HHS Secretary can question validity of ACIP recommendation, and propose changes to Congress Funding for vaccines in the ACIP list is mandatory, implying that ACIP can raise vaccine funding for about 45% of U.S. children by a vote

17 ACIP Vote Implications
VFC entitlement must be fulfilled States’ options for underinsured Raise funding consistent with purchase policy Selectively implement a vaccine Providers’ options for underinsured- none are good Ask parents to pay Refer patients out, if possible Take a financial loss Stop vaccinating

18 Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) Two-Tier Policies, by State, United States*
D.C. *As of February 2003 States with a two-tiered PCV policy (19 states are not implementing PCV with 317 funds) States without a two-tiered PCV policy If all States implemented PCV and flu, the 2004 funding shortfall would be $55 Million

However, public health clinics may provide all vaccines to all children who present for vaccination.
