Starting today, the federal government is distributing free at-home test kits by mail. Those who want free at-home test kits with free shipping can order them through the federal testing website COVIDTests.gov. Orders are limited to four tests per household.
On Jan.15, health insurers began providing free test kits and reimbursing for those purchased from pharmacies and other retailers. Up to eight tests per month per individual on the plan are covered. Some providers and stores have arrangements for the store to bill your insurance directly. Contact your health insurance provider or local pharmacy for more information. For those who have Medicare or Medicaid, learn more on how to get reimbursed for COVID testing.
