Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Independence Administrators has been committed to working with your group health plan to help you get the care you need. Even though the Public Health Emergency ended May 11, 2023, you still have access to vaccines, virtual visits, and testing based on your group health plan’s benefits.
Your group health plan covers the COVID-19 vaccine at no cost when obtained from an in-network provider. If the vaccine is administered by an out-of-network provider, standard cost-sharing will apply. Check your benefits to confirm if you have out-of-network coverage.

Standard cost-sharing will be applied according to your group health plan benefits for FDA-approved COVID-19 diagnostic tests, such as PCR tests. Over-the-counter COVID-19 tests will no longer be reimbursed. If you have a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA), you can submit for reimbursement through those programs.
Virtual doctor visits: Standard cost-sharing will apply for all telemedicine visits with your primary care physician (PCP) and specialists. Log in at myibxptabenefits.com to find a provider.
Virtual behavioral health visits: Standard cost-sharing will apply for all virtual visits with a behavioral health provider. Log in at myibxptabenefits.com to find a behavioral health provider.

Call your doctor if you think you’ve been exposed to COVID-19 and develop symptoms. Visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for more details on symptoms, including those for people who already received a COVID-19 vaccination.
Outpatient treatments for COVID-19 are available. These antiviral drug options can help patients at high risk for severe COVID-19. Speak with your doctor as soon as symptoms appear to learn more about treatment options and determine if you are eligible. Please review the terms of your health benefits plan for coverage information.
