This is excellent news. Hope they're prepared with a backup site or two for when the webpage crashes almost as soon as it's launched.

Still trying to figure out why Medicare recipients are exempt from reimbursement for at home tests like all other insured people. If I have a secondary insurance (Blue cross etc) will that make a difference? Seems like seniors should have equal access to free tests too.

I can’t believe they launched the site and we STILL can’t access affordable tests, just a splash page. I am so sick of “coming soon” on a problem we are in year 3 of trying to navigate.
