COVID-19 Testing
Humana the first insurer to offer LabCorp’s at-home test-collection kits. Humana also announced an innovative new collaboration with Walmart and Quest Diagnostics to help members more easily get tested – becoming the first health care company to offer its members drive-thru testing at hundreds of Walmart Neighborhood Market drive-thru pharmacy locations across the country. Humana will continue to waive member costs related to COVID-19 diagnostic tests. To create a seamless experience for members, Humana has developed a coronavirus risk-assessment tool – at Humana.com/coronavirus. The tool is based on CDC guidelines. Members who have symptoms consistent with COVID-19 infection, or those without symptoms who may be been exposed to the virus qualify for testing – and will be given the option to request an in-home test or drive-thru testing. This is part of Humana’s ongoing effort to meet members where they are, and ensure that they have a wide range of options and choices for COVID-19 diagnostic testing. The test is available through LabCorp’s Pixel by LabCorp™ online platform. The test kit is physician-authorized and enables individuals to self-collect nasal swab specimens at home Full Press Release Hidalgo County Testing centers are below as well as info for in and around Bexar County. https://covid19.sanantonio.gov/What-YOU-Can-Do/Testing/List-of-Testing-Locations-in-Bexar-County https://www.dshs.state.tx.us/coronavirus/testing.aspx |
I wasn’t aware that there were drive-through testing facilities. I need to get tested because I have the symptoms. I’ll have to go to a local clinic to make sure that I am not positive.
