Delaware Medical Assistance Program (DMAP) – May 20, 2021

June 3, 2021

In response to coronavirus COVID-19, DMAP has updated the Non-Citizen Benefit Package (ILLNR) described in the April 21, 2020 Notify Me, to reflect primary coverage available through the federal government’s Health Resources & Service Administration (HRSA) COVID-19 Uninsured Program.
The HRSA Program provides COVID-19 claims reimbursement to health care providers and facilities for testing, treatment, and vaccine administration for the uninsured.
Claims submitted to DMAP that are eligible for HRSA reimbursement will be denied except for deliveries with a COVID-19 primary diagnosis or a delivery with diagnosis code O98.5; these will continue to be paid by DMAP.
