HOW AND WHEN TO GET TESTED
Symptom Testing
Cost: Can be billed to insurance; co-pays may exist depending on your insurance.
Type: Nasal swab test
Symptom testing is treated as a medical visit and is billed to insurance. Those who are exposed to COVID-19 or are exhibiting COVID-19 symptoms can receive a test at Craig Rapid Care. Please call ahead and ask to be seen.
Tests are sent to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment for processing and analysis. Results are typically available within 3 to 14 days, though turnaround time depends on a number of factors including testing volume at the CDPHE lab.
Elective Testing
Cost: $150 (Not billed to insurance)
Type: Saliva test
Effective Thursday, Oct. 1, elective or “rapid" COVID-19 testing will be available at Craig Rapid Care. Results are available within 48 to 72 hours.
This is a good option for people who are traveling and need to present a negative test result. It is also a viable option for those who want a guaranteed turnaround time for results to possibly shorten their quarantine period.
