Confused about lack of coverage for COVID booster

I am on a NJ-based BCBS plan, but living in a different state. Due to recent change in policy, it’s tricker for me to get out of state coverage. I’m trying to get a COVID booster, but I’ve been told insurance won’t automatically cover the vaccine. Spoke to at least 5 different insurance reps to understand how to get vaccine covered. Was told I will have to pay out of pocket and submit a claim with receipt and script from referring doctor/provider. Im confused about how to get a prescription- my PCP said they can’t write a script for a COVID vaccine.

My insurance company suggested I go to a CVS MinuteClinic and request that an on-site provider write a script. Called an in-network MinuteClinic, but they said they don’t “write prescriptions,” but they’d provide me info that has the vaccine brand and provider’s name, but no signature for a script.

Very confused and curious if anyone has experience with this? I don’t want to pay $200 just to submit a claim and be told I didn’t have the appropriate script.
