My Chinese wife is scheduled to take her medical exam in Shanghai before her interview for the CR1 Visa. As the Chinese hospital no longer exists (and no longer has any vaccine records), she will have to get the full panel at her medical exam. Anyone have any idea how much these vaccines would cost?

Medical in China is pretty cheap. My dad gets his annual executive check up in China, all the blood work, ECG, Ultrasound, xrays and consultation and he ends up paying about

1500USD. Im pretty sure vaccination would run way less than that. 
I think your bigger problem is not the expenses, but the intervals of these shots to have them completed. For example, HbV has 3 shots given at 4th week and 8th week after the first shot. 
It might take a few months before she can complete all the immunizations. (keyword: COMPLETE THEM) Im not sure if they would allow her to start the series and finish it in the U.S

Thanks, @RandyW! I actually have this information, but it doesn't show the costs of the actual vaccines, just the medical exam (vaccines not included). Do you happen to know the costs of the entire panel of vaccines needed (not the actual vaccines, we know this)? Thanks!
