No-cost COVID-19 treatment extended through March 31, 2021As the pandemic continues, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network want to ensure that members can get the care they need during these difficult times. We are extending the time frame for waiving the member cost share for COVID-19 treatment through March 31, 2021. The coverage applies to Blue Cross, BCN, Medicare Plus Blue℠, BCN Advantage℠ and Medigap plans. We’ll also continue to cover physician-approved testing and associated services for the duration of the public health emergency, as required by federal guidelines. For more information, see our news release. You can read about changes we’ve implemented for COVID-19 at bcbsm.com/coronavirus or log in to Provider Secured Services and click on Coronavirus (COVID-19). Note: Some commercial self-funded groups are extending the waiver of member cost share. In addition, the Michigan Education Special Services Association, known as MESSA, and some Medicare Advantage groups have a different end date for the waiver of member cost share. Providers are encouraged to submit claims to Blue Cross and BCN and wait for the voucher before charging member cost share, if applicable. |
