About

What is the Opill Cost Assistance Program (CAP)
The Opill CAP provides Opill free or at a discounted cost to eligible customers. You can learn more about program eligibility by reviewing these requirements.

Eligibility

Who is eligible to receive free Opill?
To be eligible for the Opill CAP, individuals:
  • Must not have insurance that covers the cost of Opill. This includes all commercial or government-provided public insurance. Public insurance includes Medicaid, Medicare, Campus/TRICARE and VA.
    Note: This insurance requirement does not apply to those who are under the age of 26 and covered on a parent or custodian’s insurance plan.
  • Have a household income at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level, adjusted for household size; and
  • Reside in the U.S. or a covered U.S. territory. Covered U.S. territories include the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

What is the Federal Poverty Level (FPL)? How do I know if I’m at or below 200% of the FPL?
The FPL is determined annually by the U.S. government. For more information about the criteria used to set these levels and for guidance based on income and household size, you can visit the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services website.

What if I don’t qualify for the Opill CAP, but I still can’t afford Opill?
If you do not meet the requirements for free Opill product through CAP, there are additional circumstances that may qualify you to purchase Opill at a substantially discounted price. One of our live agents will be able to determine if this discount applies to you once you have completed the eligibility determination process. To get started, call 1-866-971-3864 to speak with a live agent .

We also understand that even if you don’t meet the eligibility requirements of the free or discounted programs offered, you may still experience difficulties paying for Opill. Currently, there is a 5% discount available if you choose to purchase Opill with a subscription at Opill.com.

Information about potential future discounts will be updated on this page as they become available.

My income is lower now than my most recent tax information shows. Will this impact my eligibility?
We understand situations can change. If you're experiencing financial hardship or constraints, like losing your job, you can submit the most recent documentation and/or a letter explaining your situation.

My tax information and/or insurance coverage is tied to my parent(s), but my income is lower than theirs and/or I don’t want them to know I’m seeking contraception. Can I still qualify for the Opill CAP?
If you wish to be evaluated on your situation alone, you can provide a written account of your situation along with supporting documentation and we will consider this in evaluating your eligibility. You may be asked to provide additional documentation as well, such as employment verification, W-2, 1099 and/or proof of student enrollment. To get started, call 1-866-971-3864 to speak with a live agent and request a direct review of your circumstances.

Application/Verification

How do I apply?
To begin verifying eligibility, please call toll-free at 866-971-3864, Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM Eastern Time.

Live agents will be able to assist you throughout the entire process, but a summary is below:

After you’ve given your consent to move forward, you will be asked to provide the following information:
  • First Name
  • Last Name
  • Address
  • Date of Birth
  • Gender (Your gender must align with what is listed on your documentation.)
  • Household size

A third-party vendor will then assess your estimated income based on the information provided. If the agent is unable to verify eligibility based on the initial information provided, you may be required to submit additional documentation, such as your most recent tax return or other similar records that reflect your true income. You can learn more about how we use this information by reviewing the Privacy section below.

How long will it take to determine if I’m eligible for the Opill CAP?
Our live telephone agents might be able to complete the eligibility check in just a few minutes. If eligibility verification cannot be determined while on the phone with an agent, you can choose to submit additional documentation through a secure webpage. Once the documents are received, the review process would typically take about 2-5 business days. However, each individual’s circumstances are unique, and the actual review time may vary.

Why do you need to verify my income level?
The Opill CAP was created to support those who are most in need of cost assistance. Income verification helps prevent the enrollment of individuals that do not meet the set eligibility requirements.
