Answer

A. Provided at no cost to you

Step-by-step explanation

The OSHA rule for Occupational Exposure to Blood borne Pathogens says that employers should immediately ensure availability of confidential medical evaluation and follow-up to report the event of exposure. The employer should direct the worker to a licensed professional healthcare. All this under the cost of the employer.
