During the public health emergency, ConnectiCare will cover COVID-19 diagnostic testing without cost share when: A licensed medical professional decides the test is medically necessary for a member under the professional’s care, and Orders a test in order to diagnose and, if necessary, treat a member. You can visit CVS Pharmacy Minute Clinic for no-cost COVID-19 testing by appointment in many locations throughout the region. Visit their COVID-19 testing page to schedule a test. It’s convenient and easy. Testing to diagnose COVID-19 is covered when ordered by a doctor, nurse, pharmacist, or other licensed health care provider.* Testing providers may not bill members for any balance over their health plan’s reimbursement for the test. Your test and visit to diagnose COVID-19 (whether in-person or a virtual telehealth visit) will be covered by your plan. There will be no cost-sharing, including copays, coinsurance, or deductibles. Virtual visits include video and/or phone visits. This policy is in effect during the federal public health emergency. You can also find a community-based testing site here. *Standard plans exclude coverage for return-to-work and public health surveillance testing.
