CVS Health has begun offering rapid COVID-19 testing at three Henrico locations soon, the company announced Oct. 28. The locations are among 11 CVS stores in Virginia that are debuting the testing, which will produce results within 30 minutes in most cases.
The Henrico locations are:
• 11271 Nuckols Road, Glen Allen;
• 3001 Lauderdale Drive;
• 5001 West Broad Street.
In addition, a location at 221 East Hundred Road in Chester also will offer the service.
Rapid-result COVID-19 diagnostic tests are available at no cost to patients who meet Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria. They also may be available as a testing option for eligible employees or students affiliated with an organization that has adopted CVS Health’s Return Ready return-to-work COVID-19 testing solution, company officials said.
CVS Health has administered more than 5 million COVID-19 tests since March and currently manages more than 4,000 drive-thru test sites at CVS Pharmacy locations in 33 states and Washington, D.C. Most results from these existing test sites are generally available within 2 to 3 days.
Patients must register in advance at CVS.com to schedule an appointment. Testing also is available for patients ages 12 – 17; a parent or legal guardian must complete the online registration and must accompany minors ages 15 and younger for testing.
