JACKSON, Wyo. — COVID-19 Curative testing sites in Teton County will no longer provide free tests to everyone, announced the Teton County Health Department (TCHD) today.

“This change in payment options is occurring to align with the Wyoming Department of Health’s prioritization of COVID-19 testing supplies,” said TCHD.

Beginning Saturday, July 16 there will be three options to cover costs:

  1. Curative will bill their insurance
  2. Patients can pay at the time of service
  3. If a patient is uninsured, your test will remain at no cost due to the Wyoming Department of Health COVID-19 testing program.

“We know this will be a transition for our community, but in this phase of the pandemic, it is time to move to this model of accessing testing,” said Teton County Health Department Director Jodie Pond, MPH. The Teton County Health Department will continue to work with the Wyoming Department of Health to provide services for those who are in the greatest need.”

Curative’s billing and pricing policy can be viewed here.

COVID-19 testing appointments at Teton County’s two sites can still be booked by going to curative.com. 

Every home in the U.S. is still eligible to order a third round of free at-home Antigen COVID-19 tests (up to 16 tests). Orders can be placed by visiting covid.gov/tests.
