Commissioner Conway adopted emergency regulation 21-E-11, which became effective on July 22, 2021. This regulation applies to all carriers offering individual, small group, large group plans, student health plans and managed care plans subject to the state’s insurance laws. Those carriers must cover all FDA-authorized or approved vaccines for COVID-19 throughout the duration of the COVID-19 recovery, including all associated costs of administration, at no cost sharing. The requirement applies upon FDA authorization or approval and is not contingent on the issuance of a recommendation by the Center for Disease Control’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.
Employers with plans regulated by the state should be aware of this requirement.
