A: Simply call us at 1-877-I-LUV-MPG (1-877-458-8674) and tell the representative that you wish to schedule a travel consult.
Q: What is required at the time of my appointment?
A: Please bring a history of vaccinations and a current list of medications you are taking. Also, if possible, we encourage you to bring your travel itinerary and other travel information that you find relevant. Our team will review them with you, assess any risks and make necessary recommendations.
Q: Will vaccine documentation be provided?
A: Yes, our office provides you with an International Certificate of Vaccination for Travel or a state approved record of vaccination. Our travel clinic is a certified Yellow Fever clinic.
Q: Are prescriptions provided if necessary?
A: Yes, prescriptions are provided for the prevention of malaria and other diseases if the physician deteremines it is necessary.
Q: How long prior to my departure should I get vaccinated?
A: MPG encourages that you plan ahaed. Ideally, travel vaccines should be administered 4-6 weeks prior to departure to allow time for travelers to receive any vaccines that must be administered in a series and to acquire immunity. However, we understand that this is not always possible and will do our best to accomodate requests for vacccinations with less time.
Q: Do medical insurances cover the office visit and vaccinations?
A: As a general rule, most insurance policies do not cover travel consults and vaccinations. Under certain circumstances, your insurer may cover for certain preventive medications (i.e. anit-malarial or diarrheal medicines). Check with your insurance carrier prior to receiving any vaccinations. Either way, MPG can provide you with a detailed bill that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Be aware that submitting the bill to your insurance company is not a guarantee for reimbursement and this process is between you and your insurance company, not with MPG.
