Important: AFC Urgent Care Aurora Saddle Rock provides COVID-19 Testing for patients that meet the following requirements. However, we can rule out seasonal illness with testing if you don’t meet key COVID-19 testing criteria.
- If a patient has direct exposure to COVID-19 and has met COVID-19 exposure criteria, then they should be tested by the state department.
- The testing criteria for COVID-19 includes the following:
- Travel to another country in the last 30 days
- If you had direct contact with another patient with a confirmed case of COVID-19
- If a patient has been exposed to COVID-19 and is shown to be symptomatic
To make it as safe as possible for our patients… If a patient has a known exposure to COVID-19 and becomes symptomatic it is the CDC recommendation as well as the Colorado Public Health Department that they be referred to the emergency department because they have access to the quickest testing. The reality is… we likely won’t see many of these because the health department should already know about them and should be tracking them. It is AFC policy that we follow CDC guidelines for these patients.

AFC Urgent Care FAQs
-
Why does AFC provide two different COVID tests?
We offer a rapid test because they provide highly reliable results on the spot; however, they do produce more false negatives than the RT-PCR COVID-19 Test. Doing both tests is our way of ensuring that you get the most accurate results possible without having to put your life on hold.
-
How long does it take to get a COVID test?
We're able to get many patients in and out in a matter of minutes, but the length of time you'll spend in our clinic will depend on wait times that day.
-
How much does it cost to get a COVID test?
That will ultimately depend on your insurance coverage. Presently, many people with insurance are able to get tested at no charge. If you’re uninsured, AFC’s cash pay prices are highly competitive – contact us for the details.
