It’s evolving but we are ending tests to Quest ( 3-4 day turn around) for pt.’s
that meet CDC guidelines.

Hi,
This is Anthony from Callen-Lorde. We were originally told by LabCorp that we
could use self-swabbing, but received conflicting information from
BioReference. Our medical providers are currently performing the nasopharyngeal
swabs as a precaution until we get consensus.
Thanks,
Anthony

Good Day,
It is my understanding that some organizations are doing covid-19 patient
self-tests. Please share what workflows do you have in place. Also what are you
doing if a patient refuses or is unable to do it. Thanks much.
