The government, with taxpayer dollars, is paying billions of dollars for COVID vaccines and at-home test kits. But people continue to receive bills for theirs. What can you do?
The U.S. government is spending billions of dollars on COVID-19 vaccines and at-home test kits. So why are some people being charged for the shots they got last year?"I got the COVID vaccine when it was first available to my age group, March or April, around then," he said.
Tim and Vickie Gobin say it also happened to them after going to a grocery store pharmacy for their"free" shots. A recent New York Times investigation found that"the vaccines are supposed to be free, but surprise bills could happen anyway." An insurance trade group — AHIP — told the Times that"health insurance providers should pay for the administrative fees."
