The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) requires group health plans and health insurance issuers to cover COVID-19 testing without imposing any cost sharing.
Key Points:
- Employer-sponsored group health plans must cover COVID-19 testing, without imposing a deductible, copayment or other cost sharing.
- This mandate applies to fully insured group health plans and self-insured group health plans.
- Plans and issuers must pay the provider-negotiated rate for testing (or the provider’s cash price if there is no negotiated rate).
