Free COVID-19 testing program expanded, two free kits offered monthly

MADISON, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Wisconsin households can request two free at-home COVID-19 self-test kits each month.

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services announced on Friday, Feb. 10 that their "Say Yes! COVID Test" website will provide each household with two kits upon request, with each kit containing five rapid antigen tests.

DHS noted in the release that their aim is to make testing accessible and quick to help Wisconsinites make decisions about their health that could help prevent spreading COVID-19 throughout the state.

DHS Deputy Secretary Deb Standridge noted, "Ordering test kits though the website is quick, easy, and free for any Wisconsin household, and you do not need health insurance to place an order."

Orders can be placed once a month per household, with ordering opening on the first of every month.
