Highmark COVID-19

Highmark has provided the following website: https://www.highmarkbcbs.com/home/ as a dedicated resource in order to provide up to date information on COVID-19 (Coronavirus).

Highmark has implemented a temporary COVID-19 Relief Program. Under the program, cost-sharing (i.e. copayments, deductibles, etc.) associated with physician-ordered diagnostic testing for novel coronavirus will be waived for all members. These tests are being treated as preventive, so they will not apply toward the deductible in a QHDHP or impact HSA eligibility. It is the testing (lab charge) that does not have cost-sharing, office visits would still be processed in accordance with your health plan benefits.

Please see the website link for further information, and answers to your COVID-19 questions and concerns.

Important Change in Definition of “Compulsory School Age” 

Effective in 2020-2021, all children from the age of six (6) through the age of eighteen (18) must comply with compulsory school attendance requirements. To meet these requirements, parents must ensure that their child between the ages of 6 and 18 is attending or participating in one of the following:

• a public elementary, middle, or high school;
• a public charter or cyber-charter school;
• a private licensed academic or private religious school;
• home tutoring by a certified teacher;
• or an approved program of homeschooling.

Children may be excused from compulsory attendance for documented medical or other compelling reasons as outlined in District attendance policy and procedures.
