Aetna Insurance Members to Receive COVID-19 Fighting Resources from CVS Health
On Friday, CVS Health (NYSE: CVS) announced some well-received news regarding its coronavirus containment efforts. Members of the conglomerate's health insurance operation, Aetna, will receive free access to important services related to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Effective immediately, Aetna will waive all co-pays for diagnostic testing related to COVID-19 for patients that meet guidelines set out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The FDA recently relaxed rules that will allow America's larger clinical laboratories to market new COVID-19 diagnostic services before they've been run through the usual rigorous validation process so test availability will climb exponentially over the next several days.
