California PrEP Assistance Program (PrEP-AP)

In order to qualify for the California PrEP Assistance Program (PrEP-AP) you must:

• Be 18 years or older
• Be a California resident
• Be HIV negative
• Have an annual Modified Adjusted Gross Income that does not exceed 500% of the Federal Poverty Level based on family size and household income
• Not be fully covered by Medi-Cal or another third party payer

Please note that uninsured clients must be seen at a contracted clinical provider, which includes the telemedicine service PlushCare. Find a contracted location at this link. Or, click the chat bubble on the right and PleasePrEPMe can help you find one.

Kaiser Permanente (KP) members: The CA PrEP-AP is also available to members in need of financial assistance with out-of-pocket PrEP costs. As of 3/1/19 the Gilead copay card is no longer required. KP members can apply at ANY certified CA PrEP-AP enrollment site but will still be required to see their KP provider for PrEP services and pick-up prescriptions at KP pharmacies. Find a contracted enrollment location at this link. 

If you do not qualify for PrEP-AP you can check out other Payment Assistance Programs which you may be able to apply for.
