Rapid COVID-19 Testing FAQs:

Q. What is a Rapid COVID-19 Test?

A. A Rapid PCR COVID-19 test is a nasal swab used to detect an active strain of the COVID-19 virus. Patients that are experiencing symptoms or have been in contact with an infected patient should get tested as soon as they can. 

Q. How does Rapid COVID Testing work?

A. A test works by swabbing the inside of a patient’s nose, and detecting whether or not they have an active case of the virus. Your test is then sent to and analyzed in our lab. Rapid test results are returned to a patient on the same day as their visit. 

Q. What should I do if I have a positive result?

A. You should stay home and avoid contact with others. Drink plenty of fluids throughout the quarantine process and get enough rest. Monitor your symptoms to make sure you are getting better and stay in touch with your doctor. Quarantine at home for approximately 2 weeks or a little longer. 

Q. What should I do if I have a negative test?

A. Receiving a negative tests means your body did not show active signs of the virus at the time. If you start experiencing symptoms, get tested again. If not, continue following governmental guidelines, wash your hands frequently, maintain a distance of 6 feet between others, and wear a mask when in public. 

Q. Is rapid testing covered by insurance?

A. Insurance coverage can vary for rapid COVID-19 testing prices. Some patients may have to pay out of pocket while others have coverage or have a special waiver/exemption for testing costs. Please refer to our list of current, accepted insurance plans and determine whether your policy covers rapid tests.

What is Rapid COVID-19 Testing? How does it work?

A Rapid COVID-19 test is an antigen test that can quickly detect the presence of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Rapid COVID testing uses a swab, just like a standard COVID-19 test, to analyze a sample that evaluates if a patient current has a COVID-19 infection. 

Rapid tests provide a patient their results on the same day of testing and with high levels of accuracy. The average time it takes to complete a test is 15 minutes, while results come back a little bit after that time. 

AFC Urgent Care Castle Rock performs Rapid COVID-19 testing using Abbot molecular PCR tests that can provide test results on the same day as a patient visit.
