Rapid COVID-19 Testing FAQs for Patients:

When can I get a RAPID COVID-19 test?

A RAPID COVID-19 test is most accurate when the test is done within the first 7 days of symptom onset. A RAPID COVID-19 test done after the first 7 days is not considered to be accurate, and a RT-PCR test is recommended.

Which test is more accurate/more sensitive for COVID-19?

According to the FDA, the RT-PCR test is the “gold standard" for COVID-19 testing today. Rapid COVID19 tests can miss 18-20% of active cases and having a negative rapid test does not necessarily mean you do not have COVID-19, especially if you have symptoms.

How fast is a RAPID COVID-19 test?

You will recieve rapid result tests in less than 1 hour.

Please explain the testing process?

Upon arrival at the parking lot, please see Security about availability of testing. If there are still testing slots available that day, they will give you a number/token and add you to the testing queue. Because of long wait times, based on your position in the queue, you may be asked to go back home and await a call from AFC Staff regarding when to return to the parking lot later in the day for your test. Testing slots fill up quickly, so please ensure to arrive for testing before 8:00 AM.

What if I have a Token number for today and I am not called? Can I use the token number for the next day?

Unfortunately, we are not able to do that. The token number that we give you is valid for the day. If we don’t call you that means that we reached our maximum capacity for the day. We give waitlist numbers just to accommodate more people if there are cancellations or if we are done sooner.

Do you need appointments for testing?

COVID-19 testing is done on a first-come, first-serve basis. You do not need appointments and we are not able to honor appointments currently. Numbers/Tokens are distributed starting around 7:30 AM. If you are given a number in the morning, there are very high chances you will have your COVID-19 test done the same day.

Where do you send your test samples?

We work with few labs to send our samples. LabCorp and Genesis are the ones that we work with primarily. We work with multiple labs because one lab is not able to fulfill our testing needs.

Can we register on LabCorp to get our results?

Please check with our staff at the time of testing. You can register on LabCorp and get your result online if your sample is sent to LabCorp.

Can we get our results mailed to us?
