Medova Lifestyle Health Plans COVID-19 Testing

Medova Lifestyle Health Plans will cover COVID-19 testing as a component of the preventive medicine benefits at 100% coverage.  This includes members that are enrolled in a HealthConsumer plan option.  Medical care and treatment for COVID-19 will be covered the same as any other illness.
 
Lab Tests related to the COVID-19 virus will be covered for members that meet the CDC guidelines for testing. 

• Lifestyle Health will be adding the COVID-19 test (HCPCS code U0001) to the listing of preventive service codes covered under the plan. 
• Members that meet the CDC guidelines for testing will have their COVID-19 test covered under the preventive benefits portion of their health benefits program up to a maximum coverage amount of $60 for the U0001 lab test. 
• Lifestyle Health will pay 100% of the lab test when ordered and billed through LabCorp to our DirectHealth lab program. 
• If COVID-19 testing is not facilitated through LabCorp, Lifestyle Health will provide a benefit of up to $60 for the U0001 lab test with no patient cost share. Members will be responsible for any balance above the $60 maximum allowable unless the test is ordered through Labcorp. 
• Treatment expense for all other services related to the COVID-19 virus will be subject to normal plan deductible and co-insurance provisions. 
• For members that have an HDHP Consumer plan, the COVID-19 test will be paid at first dollar benefit and not subject to their deductible and co-insurance provision up the maximum allowable indicated above. 
• Medova Lifestyle Health Plans does not have a limit on the number of testings that a member can have.
