The drugs will be available through the Ready, Set, PrEP program, a nationwide program led by HHS to provide preexposure prophylaxis HIV medication to thousands of people. The program allows uninsured patients to fill prescriptions at no cost.

CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid are also part of the Ready, Set, PrEP program.
