- IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
- If concerns for COVID-19 are present during your medical assessment, the MDLIVE physician will help guide you to the appropriate level of care.
- All telehealth visits with MDLIVE or with your in-network provider are covered at 100% with no copay, deductible, or coinsurance for both the PPO and HDHP plans until further notice.
- Beginning March 1, 2020 for PPO Plan members and March 19, 2020 for HDHP members, all fees associated with utilizing MDLIVE are temporarily waived.
