• FDA-authorized vaccines help reduce the risk of illness from COVID-19 by working with the body’s natural defenses to safely develop protection (immunity) to the virus. • You pay nothing for the vaccine. • Be sure to bring your red, white, and blue Medicare card with you when you get the vaccine so your health care provider or pharmacy can bill Medicare. You’ll need your Medicare card even if you’re enrolled in a Medicare Advantage Plan or other Medicare health plan.
DIAGNOSTIC TESTS
• These FDA-authorized tests check to see if you have COVID-19. • You pay nothing for this test during the COVID-19 public health emergency when you get it from a laboratory, pharmacy, doctor, or hospital, and when Medicare covers this test in your local area.
ANTIBODY TESTS
• These FDA-authorized tests help see if you’ve developed an immune response and may not be at immediate risk of COVID-19 reinfection. • You pay nothing for the test during the COVID-19 public health emergency.
MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY TREATMENTS
• These FDA-authorized treatments can help fight the disease and keep you out of the hospital, if you test positive for COVID-19 and have mild to moderate symptoms. • You pay nothing for this treatment during the COVID-19 public health emergency when you get the treatment from a Medicare provider or supplier. You must meet certain conditions to qualify. Note: Coverage could change when the public health emergency ends.
