Insurance Set to Cover At-Home COVID Tests
Written by Site Hub on January 11, 2022
While we have seen how difficult it has been to track down an at-home COVID test, private insurance companies are stepping in. Starting Saturday, private health insurers will be required to cover up to eight home COVID-19 tests per month for people on their plans. This news comes from when yesterday the Biden administration announced to lower costs and make testing for the coronavirus more convenient amid rising frustrations. In addition to this coverage, the federal government has plans to make testing more accessible as well. Later in the month, they will be launching a website to begin making 500 million at-home COVID-19 tests available via mail.
