New York Medicaid plans will reimburse Providers for COVID-19 specimen collection or CLIA waived COVID-19 testing for Medicaid Members, when such collection or testing is in compliance with the Governor’s Executive Order #202.24.
* For Pharmacies- do not bill for Specimen Collection. Reimbursement includes the COVID-19 testing and specimen collection. Furthermore, if the Pharmacy is receiving payment from another insurance for COVID-19 testing or lab specimen collection, the Pharmacy SHOULD NOT bill NY MEDICAID.
