Marisa Petrarca Published: Jan 7, 2026 Teal Health Just days after federal health guidelines were updated to allow at-home self-collection for cervical cancer screening, Teal Health announced that its FDA-authorized Teal Wand screening is now available in all 50 states. Teal, a virtual women’s health company focused on preventive gynecologic care, became the first—and currently only—provider in the United States to receive FDA authorization for an at-home cervical cancer screening device in May 2025. The nationwide expansion follows updated federal guidance that now recognizes self-collection—meaning at-home collection without requiring a speculum exam or an initial in-office visit—for primary HPV testing. Beginning in January 2027, insurance plans will be required to cover self-collected cervical cancer screenings, along with any necessary follow-up testing.
