Important COVID-19 Information for CoxHealth MedicarePlus Members
CoxHealth MedicarePlus is monitoring the coronavirus pandemic very closely. Aggressive federal, state and local efforts are underway to contain the spread of the virus. COVID-19 is very contagious and can cause infection in some older adults. It is therefore important to stay informed to reduce your risk of infection and the risk to others in the community.
As always, our highest priority is your health and well-being. We are working each day, reviewing the most recent information as it becomes available and partnering with your healthcare providers to respond to the coronavirus. This is a rapidly evolving situation that is changing daily. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is continually updating its guidance for patients, and this information can be accessed online.

Waiver of Member-Related Costs Associated with COVID-19
CoxHealth MedicarePlus is waiving all member related costs associated with the testing and treatment of confirmed or suspected COVID-19 cases from March 1st, 2020 forward. This includes any applicable co-pays, co-insurance, or deductibles that our members would have normally been responsible for. This waiver will be in effect until May 31, 2020, at which time we will reevaluate based on the status and containment of the COVID-19 virus.
