Free OraQuick In-Home HIV test kits are now available at the Florida Department of Health in Pasco County at the Summit Professional Building, 7509 SR 52 in Hudson. The in-home HIV test allows you to test yourself for HIV without sending a sample to a lab or visiting a clinic. You may also order a test kit for home delivery.

Valued at $45, this test has been used by health care professionals for years and provides preliminary results in just 20 minutes. Designed for home use, the test is fast, accurate, and free. Simply swab the inside of your mouth, set your timer, and find out your status.

To schedule a pickup of an in-home HIV test kit, please call one of the following HIV team members during regular business hours:

  • 727-619-0260
  • 727-619-0324
  • 727-619-0175

All individuals aged 13–64 be tested for HIV at least once in their lifetime, and those at increased risk for HIV infection be tested at least annually.

Early diagnosis allows individuals to begin appropriate treatment and care, resulting in better health outcomes. Studies have shown that starting antiretroviral therapy as early as possible after diagnosis improves a patient’s health, reduces transmission, and can lead to undetectable HIV viral loads.

The HIV Team at the Florida Department of Health Pasco County is ready to assist with linkage to HIV care if you test positive or have any questions. Information about PrEP is available at any time.
