HRSA programs to stop accepting COVID-19 claims beginning March 23

The COVID-19 Uninsured Program will stop accepting claims for testing and treatment on March 22 at 11:59 p.m. ET and claims for vaccination on April 5 at 11:59 p.m. ET due to lack of sufficient funds, the Health Resources and Services Administration announced yesterday. HRSA’s Coverage Assistance Fund also will stop accepting claims for vaccination on April 5 at 11:59 p.m. ET, the agency said. Eligible claims submitted by these deadlines “will be paid subject to the availability of funds.”
