Moroccan Health Insurance Fund Reverses Course, Will Cover COVID-19 Expenses

The decision not to reimburse coronavirus-related expenses had been very poorly received by policyholders, which led to consultations between the Minister of Economy, Mohamed Benchaaboun, and the Insurance and Social Welfare Control Authority.

A meeting is scheduled for next week and will be devoted to "studying the possibilities of ensuring the reimbursement and coverage of benefits related to Covid-19 for policyholders," in compliance with medical requirements and financial standards. It will also ensure that the reimbursement does not affect the financial balance of CNOPS.
