Hepatitis B Inoculation. Employees may elect to receive the Hepatitis B vaccine on a voluntary basis. Employees will submit cost of inoculation for Hepatitis B to their insurance carrier. The Board will provide a group rate option to employees. Employees who choose to receive a Hepatitis B vaccine at an alternate facility other than the group rate facility will be responsible for payment of the difference between the group facility rate and the independent facility. The Board will be responsible for the balance between insurance coverage and the group rate. Employees will be the sole determiner of their risk factor and will hold the Board harmless regarding any medical side effects attributed to inoculation. The series of inoculations and a confirming blood test may be received by each employee once. Thereafter, where the employee's doctor certifies that a further series will be of value, the employee may take such series at Board cost as provided above.
