imola Posted March 24, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Hoping some one here can lend a hand. I went online to RC site to purchase the 6 pack of test kits but they only show packs of 2 or 3 available no 6s at all. I went to the seller's site and they did not have them either. I need 2 sets of 2 plus the backup in case any are bad. (already had that happen before. Any thoughts of where else to look? TIA for any help.

Rare aring75 Posted March 24, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I just ordered this morning. Got the pack of six. Did you go to emed dot com? When you click the order now button, it takes you directly to the page to order the pack of six. Just double-checked and it’s still working.

D4 Posted March 25, 2022 #8 Share Posted March 25, 2022 They FedEx the tests If you have health insurance in the USA, companies are now required to reimburse up to $12 per test. (I don’t think that applies to Medicare yet) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve ordered twice directly from Optum and never paid shipping. My daughter just ordered and paid no shipping, but she was sent the wrong tests. They are expediting another order today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately they did not give me a free shipping option even though it says orders over $49 have no shipping costs. It could be because I was in the mobile site and sometimes those don’t load properly. Who knows, I’m ok with the small extra cost; at least I know they’ll be here pre cruise in case Walgreens stops testing in my area like CVS has.

rockmom Posted March 25, 2022 #17 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I also ordered from Optum via the Royal link last Friday morning. Shipping was $7.99 and there wasn't any option for free shipping. I have been ordering from emed and yes, the shipping there was higher, but I didn't need 6 tests this time so went with Optum. The tests did arrive on Tuesday, so fairly quickly.

We need 4 kits and want a backup after having a bad kit the last time we got them so kinda have to get the the 6 pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imola Posted March 27, 2022 Author #25 Share Posted March 27, 2022 I just went to the med site to order. I put the 6 pack in my cart. It added the shipping and tax which brought it to over $182.00. Then after I put in the billing information it said: "Items in your cart legally require a medical prescription to be dispensed. Those items will be delivered to you after approval by an eMed Medical Professional." Has anyone else has this happen? If so is there a cost from them to get this "prescription"? They are making it hard to do business with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
