Effective February 24, 2021, the Division of Insurance adopted Emergency Regulation 21-E-03. This emergency regulation is an extension of regulation 20-E-17, which requires carriers to provide covered people with treatment related to COVID-19 and access to COVID-19 vaccines without cost sharing. This emergency regulation also ensures that out-of-network providers rendering emergency services for emergency medical conditions, including but not limited to COVID-19, are appropriately compensated for per regulation without delay. The regulation is in effect for 120 days or during any period in which a disaster declaration is in effect in the state of Colorado due to the presence of COVID-19, whichever is shorter.
Employers with plans regulated by the state should be aware of this emergency regulation.
