PEBA, BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina and Express Scripts are closely monitoring the latest information about the COVID-19 vaccines. The State Health Plan will cover the COVID-19 vaccination as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at no member cost. For vaccines that require more than one dose, the Plan will cover each required dose at no member cost.

More information about the distribution of the vaccine is available on the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control   (DHEC) website. Members who have questions about the safety and effectiveness of the vaccines or other clinical aspects, such as potential side effects, should visit the CDC   and DHEC   websites.
