We studied the cost and financing of national immunization programs in lower and middle-income 28 countries: their immunization legislation, sorting them according to responsible parties for financing, stakeholders, functioning programs, covered vaccines, promotion, donor organization and implementation processes. Based on the analysis, 6 countries have been identified as optional best practices: Sri-Lanka, Bolivia, Costa-Rica, El-Salvador, Mongolia and Vietnam. Furthermore, several other lower and middle income emerging countries immunization programs have been studied, like Moldova, Azerbaijan, Bhutan, Ghana, Armenia, Georgia and Indonesia. These countries immunization programs have covered almost all points: timeline, supply, storage, applying, prevention, monitoring, training of the staff, financing programs and circumstances of obeying the rules. In addition, the process of immunization financing is well defined in their national legislations.
