Medicare Learning Network releases update on hepatitis C testing benefit

On June 2, 2014, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that Medicare will cover hepatitis C testing at no cost to beneficiaries whom the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends be screened. Specifically, Medicare will cover a one-time test for beneficiaries who are born from 1945 through 1965 and ongoing tests for those who are at risk.
