NMHSI COVID-19 Testing
NMHSI offers traditional COVID-19 viral testing in which a swab is inserted deeply into each nostril, twisted and left in each nostril for 10 seconds to collect fluids. This test detects if you currently have COVID-19. No antibody testing is currently offered.
To keep yourself, our community and healthcare heroes safe, always wear a mask in public, wash your hands often and maintain social distancing.
COVID-19 Testing Results & Insurance
Lab processing times can vary depending on the volume of tests being processed and are usually returned within 4-5 days.
How Will I Receive My COVID-19 Results?
NMHSI will text your results or leave a voicemail with your results. If you require a written letter confirming your results, you can contact us to request that.
Does My Insurance Cover COVID-19 Testing?
Insurances, including Medicaid and Medicare, are covering the costs of COVID-19 testing ordered by a medical provider for the purposes of diagnosing and treating.
