Just like Walmart check your receipt!!!

Not only did they charge for the test. They didn’t allow patients who needed a specific medication to have it refilled

[bitemyshinnymetalass]

Good. I thought it was suspicious when I went to get my covid test at the Santa Clara county fair grounds, the lady there asked for my debit card even though I was assured that the cost was covered through insurance. Doesn't sound 100% free to me as mandated by the president.

I had nothing but great experiences with kaiser. I got COVID tested a few times, never got billed.
