In the Connect with Capital newsletter you received on January 20, 2021, we informed you that we were extending member cost share waivers for COVID-19 testing and associated office visits through April 21, 2021. However, the newsletter also incorrectly mentioned that cost share waivers would also apply to inpatient treatment of COVID-19. We regret the error.
To be clear, Capital BlueCross has not extended the waiver of member cost share for inpatient treatment of COVID-19. That waiver has been and remains expired since July 31, 2020.
Please note that our website content has listed the correct waivers, and we did not share the recent Connect with Capital (producer-only) newsletter with any employer groups.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. We appreciate doing business with you.
