Dear Friends of Link·age:
We know you are concerned with the well-being of your residents and staff. As a result, we have partnered with Orig3n, LLC, a biotech company which has developed a comprehensive solution allowing you to conduct COVID-19 tests and receive online results within only 24 to 36 hours! As state mandates for COVID-19 testing continue to grow, there will be great demand for these services. As a result, Link·age has worked with Orig3n to bring these tests to you at a reduced cost!
So you know, Orig3n has developed breakthrough (RT-PCT) testing that performs qualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2 in individuals suspected of COVID-19. Orig3n received FDA authorization for their testing on April 10, 2020 under an FDA Emergency Use Authorization and was recognized in this McKnights
article.
Orig3n is a CLIA certified lab located in Boston, MA with high throughput capabilities and will support CMS billing where appropriate. Link·age partnered with Orig3n to streamline the process to eliminate uncertainty and improve efficiencies within the testing process.
If you are interested in ordering tests, or learning more, please contact me and I will provide additional information.
I hope you remain safe and healthy!
