*IRS, DOL and HHS issue frequently asked questions about upcoming changes to COVID-19 coverage and payment requirements*
WASHINGTON ? The Internal Revenue Service, Departments of Labor and Health and Human Services have jointly issued Frequently asked questions [ [link removed] ], Part 58 [ [link removed] ] and Part 59 [ [link removed] ] to clarify how the COVID-19 coverage and payment requirements under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) will change when the Public Health Emergency (PHE) ends.
Based on current COVID-19 trends, the Department of Health and Human Services is planning for the federal PHE for COVID-19 to end on May 11, 2023. Once the PHE ends, the coverage and payment requirements will change.
Under the FFCRA and the CARES Act, plans and issuers are not required to provide coverage for items and services related to diagnostic testing for COVID-19 that are furnished after the end of the PHE. If they provide such coverage, they may impose cost-sharing requirements, prior authorization or other medical management requirements for the items and services.
Previously issued FAQs are available on the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Fact Sheets & Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) [ [link removed] ] webpage.
