What's your situation?

Your path to free PrEP depends on your insurance status. Pick the one that fits you — we'll handle the rest.

I have insurance

The ACA requires most private plans to cover PrEP, labs, and visits at $0. Telehealth platforms handle the paperwork so you never see a bill.

I have no insurance

Gilead's Medication Assistance Program provides brand-name PrEP completely free. No SSN required. Telehealth platforms like MISTR cover labs and visits too.

I want the injectable

Two shots a year instead of a daily pill. Yeztugo (every 6 months) and Apretude (every 2 months) both have patient assistance programs covering the full cost.
