The TDAP vaccine is pretty standard.  Tetanus and diphtheria need
decennial boosters.  Pertussis needs decennial boosters for people
over age 65.  Adults under age 65 are not harmed by more frequent
boosters for pertussis.

Insurance often covers the entire cost, because it's cheaper than
paying for treatment for preventable illness.  Medicare part B
covers it, possibly with a co-pay.
