COVID-19 Questionnaire

COVID-19 TESTING

Important Points for COVID-19 Testing

  1. Do NOT eat/drink/chew gum/smoke 30 minutes prior to your appointment time.
  2. This is a self-administered saliva test for ACTIVE COVID-19 infection. There are no nasal swabs, but the person must be able to spit into the test tube for collection (see link for a description of the test and a video).
  3. You must take a questionnaire prior to setting an appointment so that we can ensure you are going to get an accurate result.
  4. The test results are reported within 48 hours of the test being completed (unless the test is performed on a Thursday or Friday, in which case the results will be reported the following Monday or Tuesday).
  5. We cannot currently bill insurance for the test. Thus, the cost for a test is $130.00 and will be collected prior to administering the test.
  6. If you have questions or need further explanations on anything, do not hesitate to call the pharmacy at 919-832-4641 and speak to a pharmacist.

Note: If the $130 is higher than the amount you are willing to pay you have the option of driving directly to the lab we are contracted with in Wake Forest.  They are currently sponsored by Wake County and if you are willing to drive to their location, the test can be administered free of charge.  Unfortunately, we are not covered under that sponsorship.  The name of the lab is Radeas Labs and their address is 907 Gateway Commons Cir Suite 100, Wake Forest, NC 27587.  They are administering the test 9am-5pm Monday through Saturday, no appointment necessary.
