Can health care providers submit claims for unaccompanied children, including both children who enter the country without their parent or legal guardian and children who for other reasons have been separated from their parent or legal guardian?

Yes. Unaccompanied children are considered uninsured individuals for the purposes of claims reimbursement under the HRSA COVID-19 Uninsured Program. Health care providers who have conducted COVID-19 testing; provided treatment for a COVID-19 primary diagnosis; or administered an FDA-authorized or licensed COVID-19 vaccine to unaccompanied children may submit claims for reimbursement if the provider attests to the Terms and Conditions (PDF - 123 KB) of the Uninsured Program.
