Update: EMS providers can be reimbursed for administering monoclonal antibody COVID‑19 infusions in any location

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network are reimbursing EMS providers for monoclonal antibody COVID-19 infusions administered in any location, retroactive to the effective date of the pertinent HCPCS code.

Previously, we reimbursed EMS providers for this service only when the infusions were administered in members’ homes, as we communicated in a July 2021 web-DENIS alert.

For additional information, including the effective dates for the pertinent codes, see this Feb. 18 Provider Alert.

For information about enrolling as a mass immunizer for Medicare Advantage members, see Enrollment for Administering COVID-19 Vaccines** on cms.gov.
