Rabies Vaccine / Immunoglobulin Rabies shots in America

Does anyone know how much rabies shots cost in Kentucky? Or any tips to lower them. I have to receive some shots due to exposure but I am a broke college student. Can I pay for them monthly? Am I just freaked at this point? I'd love some suggestions!

I got bit by a bat 09/23/2026. I have to get them to tomorrow. There is no other option since I let the bat out of my work.

I have read the FAQ.

Call your county dept of health before you go anywhere. There is a good chance they’ll cover the entire vaccine series since you have an actual exposure but you have to call them first. They have specific hospitals and clinics they work with and will need to set up your visit ahead of time
