"The reality is the cost of treating COVID-19, particularly for patients requiring intensive inpatient care, is expensive, and we spent more than $9 million on COVID care for those who are covered on our health plans over the last year," CEO of Ochsner Health, Warner Thomas, told NOLA. Ochsner Health will start charging employees $200 per month, or $100 per pay period, if their spouse or partner is unvaccinated. The "spousal COVID vaccine fee" will begin in 2022, and Thomas said it is not a mandate, saying non-employed spouses and domestic partners can select a health plan outside the Ochsner’s offerings.

But employers through incentive programs may and can increase people’s cost if they are unvaccinated,” Amin said. [ link to www.abc10.com (secure)] Last Edited by rccola on 10/02/2021 11:58 PM |
