CMS Announces Changes to PrEP Coverage

Starting September 30, Medicare changed the way it covers certain services that can reduce an individual’s risk of acquiring HIV. Previously, Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) using antiretroviral drugs was covered under Part D and was subject to regular cost sharing. Now, FDA-approved PrEP using antiretroviral drugs and the administration of injectable PrEP are covered under Part B as a preventive service.
