If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

Massachusetts is outdoing other states because they are the first to require insurers to cover the cost of COVID shots and other vaccines recommended by state health officials. Vaccines are not accessible if they are unaffordable. Every state needs to follow their lead!
This notice provides guidance from the Massachusetts Division of Insurance (DOI) and Department of Public Health (DPH) to Carriers about Massachusetts guidelines for vaccines, and to clarify the DOI’s expectations regarding coverage for vaccines within Massachusetts-issued insured health plans. Under the provisions of M.G.L. c. 176O, §6(a), and the DOI regulation for Managed Care Protections and Accreditation of Carriers, 211 CMR 52.00, in 211 CMR 52.13, Carriers are expected to provide clear explanations within Evidence of Coverage materials to persons covered within Massachusetts-issued insured health plans about benefits for vaccines. The DOI also expects other Carrier communication materials to impart clear information about vaccine coverage.Coverage for Vaccines
Carriers are expected to provide coverage for all vaccines and the cost to administer vaccines, without cost-sharing and without the use of any utilization management, for persons covered under Massachusetts-issued insured health plans who satisfy the recommended guidelines established by DPH for the provision of immunizations in Massachusetts. Carriers are expected to update all Evidences of Coverage in accordance with 211 CMR 52.13, and to make clear in all online information how eligible persons may access covered benefits for vaccines.

Carrier products with prescription drug formularies may limit access to vaccines to those specified on their plan formularies, provided that there is at least one product on the plan formulary that will address each item on the DPH recommended guidelines for vaccines. Health plans that offer non-emergency coverage through a closed network of providers may limit access to those health care practitioners or pharmacies that are part of their closed networks.
