Orders of the COVID-19 tests will be delivered for free via first-class mail. They already have a website that does sell goods to the public and has for quite some time,' an administration official told reporters at a White House briefing last week. The Postal Service is an important partner here. It has also launched other efforts - including a requirement for private insurers to cover the cost of over-the-counter at-home tests - to help expand the distribution of needed tests.ДЇederal health officials have expressed confidence in the Postal Service's ability to gather orders for tests and accommodate a possible surge in demand. The administration says that its four-test limit was imposed 'to promote broad access' to the program. The White House also says it plans to launch a hotline that will allow Americans to order their own tests over the phone, if they have difficulty ordering on the website. 'Orders will be prioritized for equitable distribution based on communities that are hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic,' the NACHW's website says. Some Americans were already able to order free at-home COVID-19 tests through the White House's program earlier this week, which granted priority access through a portal launched with the National Association of Community Health Workers for people living in 'high-risk' zip codes.
