- Screening and testing - The health plan will pay 100% for only medically necessary screening and testing of COVID-19. Beginning Saturday, Jan. 15, 2022, members covered by private health insurance or a group health plan are now able to purchase over-the-counter (OTC) COVID-19 tests authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) at no cost without a prescription. The reimbursement of OTC COVID-19 tests will remain in effect until the Public Health Emergency (PHE) is rescinded.
- COVID-19 test kits can be purchased at network pharmacies at $0 member out-of-pocket, with a quantity limit of eight tests per covered individual every 30 days. This eight-test limit does not apply to such test kits ordered with a prescription. COVID-19 tests kits must be purchased at the pharmacy counter with your medical/rx insurance card to ensure that they are processed properly. View Navitus’ list of network pharmacies.
- Members can also submit a claim for reimbursement for COVID-19 OTC test kits purchased on or after Jan. 15, including those from non-network pharmacies and non-pharmacy locations.
