Labcorp launches COVID-19 test kits for small businesses
Labcorp announced the availability of the Pixel by Labcorp COVID-19 PCR Test Home Collection Kit for small businesses, an initiative aimed at providing fast, convenient, and reliable testing for companies with as many as 120 employees, according to a news release.
Labcorp Employer Services currently provides COVID-19 testing and vaccination services for larger organizations and communities.
Kits can be purchased in multiples of six, with a maximum of 120 kits per order, at Pixel by Labcorp. Purchases are made with a credit card. Labcorp noted that the small business offering makes it easier than ever for restaurants, production companies, retailers, and other small businesses to safely operate in their local communities.
Upon receiving a Pixel by Labcorp COVID-19 PCR Test Home Collection Kit from their employer or an event organizer, individuals self-administer the test using a short nasal swab and send their sample back to Labcorp via prepaid FedEx Express overnight. Results are typically available within 1-2 days from when Labcorp receives the sample. Once the test is processed by Labcorp, results are accessed securely by the employee via the Pixel by Labcorp website.
If a COVID-19 test is positive, a Labcorp-verified healthcare staff member will contact the individual directly by phone or mail to discuss next steps. Pixel by Labcorp has contracted with a physician network to provide independent physician services for consultation.
