Washington waives copays, deductibles for coronavirus testing and treatment

People in Washington state who need treatment or testing for coronavirus (COVID-19) can get it without having to worry about copays or deductibles.

The Insurance Commissioner of Washington state Mike Kreidler issued the emergency order to state health insurers on Thursday.

The order requires health insurers to waive copays and deductibles for anyone requiring testing or treatment for COVID-19.

The person must meet the criteria for testing set out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and their healthcare provider.

I hope that CA considers taking this approach as well. I love WA, and this is one further reason for me to move up there once my son turns 18.
