CDC Launches Website to Help Consumers Find Free COVID-19 Testing Sites |
|---|
The Increasing Community Access to Testing (ICATT) program provides no-cost testing sites to communities greatly affected by the pandemic. ICATT sites operate as a partnership between the federal government, state and local jurisdictions, and a federal testing contractor.
The ICATT program provides testing resources for people who are experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19 or have been exposed to someone with COVID-19. People without health insurance do not have to pay for COVID-19 testing at ICATT locations. The tests are billed to third-party payers, such as Medicare, Medicaid, and private health insurers, to increase program sustainability.
For more information about the CDC Testing Locator website, visit testinglocator.cdc.gov. For more information about the ICATT program, visit cdc.gov/icatt.
