HRSA Uninsured Program for COVID-19

On March 22, 2022, the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) Uninsured Program stopped accepting claims for testing and treatment due to lack of sufficient funds. On April 5, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. EDT/10:59 p.m. CDT, the Uninsured Program will also stop accepting vaccination claims due to a lack of sufficient funds. Submitted claims will be paid subject to the availability of funds.

For additional information, see COVID-19 Uninsured Program Claims Submission Deadline FAQs. The Minnesota Pharmacy Alliance will look into whether the State of Minnesota will pick up those claims once the federal money runs out. Several national pharmacy associations (including the American Pharmacists Association, American Society of Consultant Pharmacists, American Society of Health-System Pharmacists and the National Alliance of State Pharmacy Associations) have sent a letter to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy urging immediate action to fully fund the Uninsured Program. MPhA has also signed on to this letter.
