COVID testing is covered by insurance in many cases, but what if you don’t have insurance? How much can you expect to pay for COVID testing? The answer will depend on where you go and what kind of testing you choose. There are federal funds available for PCR COVID testing for the uninsured, however, this doesn’t guarantee that every site participates in the program and won’t charge you for the test.

The cost of COVID testing will vary depending on the location and type of testing you receive. Be sure to ask about all out of pocket costs and the availability of federal or local funds upfront if you are uninsured. If you have insurance, call your insurance company to confirm your coverage with the provider you choose. COVID testing doesn’t have to be expensive, but it’s important to know your options ahead of time.
