COVID-19

MESSA has taken the following steps to ensure access to care for all MESSA members and their covered dependents:

    • MESSA will fully cover medically necessary testing and treatment for COVID-19 for all MESSA members and their covered dependents. Members will not have to pay a deductible, copayment or coinsurance.
    • MESSA will fully cover medical and mental health telehealth visits with in-network providers through May 31 at no cost to members and covered dependents. Medical or mental health appointments with a member’s current in-network provider that are conducted over the phone or online also will be fully covered through May 31. Note: Due to the ongoing public health crisis and the system updates necessary to waive the cost, it may take as long as six months for a member to receive a credit.
