New ways for members to get COVID-19 self-tests

While self-tests are still in short supply, here are some ways Kaiser Permanente
members can get COVID-19 home antigen tests at no cost. Please share this with
your clients and Kaiser Permanente members.

  • 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 — We’ve 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 by selecting “Coverage & Costs,” and then “Submit a medical claim.”

For the latest information on supply and available brands at Kaiser Permanente locations, visit kp.org/covidtests.

Getting vaccinated — and getting a booster dose when eligible — is still essential for protecting yourself, your business and your community. Members can book an appointment for their COVID-19 vaccine or booster through kp.org or the KP app.
