At-Home (OTC) COVID-19 Test Order

This order form is for organizations authorized by the California Department of Public Health to order At-Home (Over-the-Counter, OTC) tests.

Note: This order form is intended for organizations outside of Los Angeles County.

Los Angeles County organizations can access at-home testing resources through LA County Department of Public Health. Please do not use this form; for more information, please visit LA County At-Home Testing Resources.

As of February 29, 2024, the CDPH At-Home Testing Program has come to an end for most organizations.

Local health departments (LHDs) can request at-home tests until February 28, 2025, or when testing resources are exhausted. Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), long-term care facilities (LTCFs) and elder care facilities can request at-home tests until December 31, 2024, to support populations who are high risk for severe disease.

CDPH recommends that organizations transition to the federal Health and Human Services (HHS) Health Partner Ordering Portal (HPOP) where tests are available to order through 2025. Eligible California organizations for this program are entities that provide resources, services and/or care to the uninsured/underinsured and/or those over the age of 65, including:

Community based organizations (CBOs) that provide services and resources to the uninsured/underinsured, or those over the age of 65, including shelters, food banks, and faith-based organizations with food/clothing pantries and/or community outreach programs.
Licensed care facilities-including skilled nursing, DSS licensed residential care for the elderly, DSS licensed adult residential facilities, and DSS licensed adult day care.
Community health clinics, libraries, tribal entities, and farmworker organizations.
Government entities (including Fire, EMS, Agricultural Commissioner, etc.)

If your organization is experiencing a COVID-19 outbreak, please contact your Local Department of Public Health. At-home tests requested through CDPH should be prioritized for priority populations (those who are uninsured, underinsured, have poor access to medical care, or are at high risk for severe disease).

If you are an eligible organization and would like to request access to HPOP, please email OTCtesting@cdph.ca.gov before January 15, 2025.
