Michigan and Louisiana were the first two affiliates to announce Aug. 18 that members wouldn’t have to pay for the third booster dose of mRNA vaccines.
“It is critical that we continue to have a shared effort to defeat the virus,” said Daniel Loepp, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan president and CEO. “Blue Cross wants to play our part and ensure that our members have ready access to the additional dose of the vaccine when their turn comes to receive it.”
