While self-tests are in short supply, here are some ways Kaiser Permanente® members may be able to get COVID-19 home antigen tests at no cost.
- Federal Government: Every home in the U.S. is eligible to order 4 free self-tests without shipping fees at covidtests.gov.
- Kaiser Permanente Pharmacies: If a member is already planning to visit a Kaiser Permanente location, they may be able to pick up a self-test while they are there, as supply allows.
- Retail Pharmacies: Kaiser added a new convenient option for our members to pick up self-tests at no cost from participating retail pharmacies, such as Walmart and Rite Aid. Visit kp.org to see a list of participating retailers. Members will need to take the test to the pharmacy counter and show their photo ID and Kaiser Permanente ID card. Availability of tests may vary.
If members pay for an FDA-approved test, they can submit a claim for reimbursement at kp.org. Select “Coverage & Costs,” and then select “Submit a medical claim.”
