Cigna CoVid Coverage Changes
Changes in coverage effective May 12, 2023
The White House has announced their intent to end both the CoVid-19 National Emergency and Public Health Emergency (PHE) on May 11, 2023.
As a result, Cigna Commercial and Cigna Medicare Advantage plan to make the following changes on May 12, 2023:
- Authorizations for facility-to-facility transfers will again be required.
- Patient cost-share will apply to COVID-19 lab tests as well as antiviral and therapeutics approved by the U.S Food & Drug Administration (FDA).
- For most benefit plans, COVID-19 vaccines will be covered at 100 percent under the preventive benefit (same as the flu shot) when customers go to an in-network provider.
- Over-the-counter COVID-19 tests will no longer be covered.
