At-Home Antigen Testing Pilot Program Resumes

NIH recently announced an additional opportunity to participate in the voluntary At-Home Antigen Testing Pilot Program. 

NIH staff (employees, contractors, trainees, tenants, etc.) who are in Return-to-Physical-Workplace Groups 0, A, B, 1A and 1B, and who have not received tests from this program after Apr. 4, can place a one-time online order for 10 tests. 

Employees who meet the criteria may place online orders by completing the form at https://safercovid.org/mytest/nihorder.html using their home address. Orders may not be canceled since they are processed immediately and are normally delivered within 3 business days. 

This program is part of NIH’s continued efforts to mitigate workplace transmission of Covid-19, serving as a supplement to onsite asymptomatic testing services. As of May 27, more than 350 staff have tested positive using the kits prior to coming in on site—keeping our workplace safer for others.

If you have any questions about the testing process or test results, contact the Occupational Medical Services Call Center at (301) 480-8990 (Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. ET).
