Summary
This bulletin clarifies that MI Health Link beneficiaries can receive COVID-19 vaccines from any provider (in-network or out-of-network) during 2020-2021, with vaccine administration costs covered by Medicare Fee-for-Service rather than the Integrated Care Organizations. This specifically applies only to MI Health Link and does not follow the coverage rules established in previous bulletin MSA 20-75.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team should verify MI Health Link COVID-19 vaccine administration claims are processed through Medicare Fee-for-Service program rather than through the ICO. Update billing procedures to ensure MI Health Link beneficiaries can access COVID-19 vaccines from any provider without network restrictions during 2020-2021.
