Out-of-network providers are inflating the price of COVID-19
diagnostic and antibody tests, according to a report from America's Health
Insurance Plans. AHIP conducted a survey of its member plans in the
commercial market and received 22 responses, which represented 67 percent of
commercial enrollment of member plans. Responses were weighted based on
plans' enrollment. Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security
Act, health insurers have to pay the listed cash price for COVID-19 tests to
out-of-network providers. AHIP said this has resulted in price gouging, as
payers and providers can't negotiate test prices.
