Health Insurers Extend COVID-19 Cost-Sharing Waivers

8

Those waivers were generally set to expire in early summer, but some of the nation’s largest insurers have now extended the benefit. Experts say the resulting financial risk to those payers seems minimal, and other firms are likely to make similar moves.
