It's very important to be tested. It's very important that if you test positive for Coronavirus (COVID-19), that you are treated as soon as possible. To help with this, UnitedHealthcare is waiving member cost-sharing for the treatment of COVID-19 based on confirmed positive diagnosis until January 20, 2020 for Medicare Advantage, Medicaid, Individual and Group Market fully insured health plans. Implementation for self-funded employer customers may vary.
