Neurodiversity | Medical Plan Coverage

You may have heard the term neurodiversity in recent years, and may not be sure of its definition or how the term has evolved. The National Symposium on Neurodiversity defines neurodiversity as a concept where neurological differences are to be recognized and respected as any other human variation.

The word neurodiversity refers to the diversity of all people, but it is often used in the context of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as well as other neurological or developmental conditions such as ADHD or various learning disabilities.* Obtaining a diagnosis of neurodiversity is key so that people can learn to adapt to bring about success in their careers and in everyday situations. There are a wide range of options such as therapy programs, medications and more to help people lead successful lives. Many of these interventions are covered through Pearson-sponsored medical plans. Visit the Cleveland Clinic website to learn more about neurodiversity and what you can do to support someone who is neurodivergent.

COVID-19 Tests | End of Public Health Emergency

Now that the Public Health Emergency has ended, please note that at-home, over-the-counter COVID-19 tests (with or without a prescription) will no longer be covered under Pearson’s medical and prescription drug programs. These tests remain reimbursable under your Health Care Flexible Spending Account and Health Savings Account.
