COVID-19 Vaccine Overview
Getting the COVID-19 vaccine will help protect you and those around you, and it’s critical to helping us safely return to normal activities with friends and family.
Our Commitment Through Action
Support for national competition to identify rapid COVID-19 testing solution
Our organization is proud to partner with XPRIZE, OpenCovidScreen, and a coalition of other national and regional health plans and tech companies on a $5 million rapid COVID testing competition. The goal is to accelerate the development of high-quality COVID-19 testing that’s low cost, quick and easy to use.
The coronavirus pandemic underscores how critical innovation is. Researchers, scientists and innovators across the globe are working to develop a vaccine for the virus. While that happens, we are relying on accurate and accessible testing.
Identifying a rapid testing solution is a necessary step to containing the virus, safely reopening our country and advancing our mission of helping people and communities achieve better health.
