Coronavirus Testing and Vaccine Mandates – Are you confused about what to do?
January 25, 2022
On January 19, Attorney Howard Lapin and I conducted a free webinar on Wednesday January 19 at 1 PM CST covering the following questions:
-What health plans must offer the free Coronavirus testing?
-What type of tests must be offered?
-How many tests can an employee receive per month?
-Can the plan reimburse employees for a test or does it have to be free when purchased?
-What happens if no tests are available?
On January 10, 2022, the Biden Administration released guidance on requiring both insured and self-funded group health plans to provide free Coronavirus testing to employees and dependents by January 15, 2022.
In addition, we covered the Supreme Court rulings on the vaccine mandates.
We also provided suggested steps for employers, brokers and TPAs to comply to meet these new requirements. Do not be unprepared.
The Webinar included a substantial question and answer period.
