Antigen Rapid Test
For the rapid antigen test, start the process by scheduling a telehealth visit with one of our providers. You can schedule the visit by clicking here. In order to be tested, you must start with a telehealth visit. Telehealth visits are available 7 days a week, 8 am to 8 pm. We accept most major insurances including Medicaid and Medicare for these visits.
The COVID-19 antigen rapid test is the Sofia Antigen test. The rapid test is $95*. Currently, the test is not covered by insurance, but is emergency FDA approved. Payment is collected at the time the test is administered.
PCR Rapid Test
We are now offering the PCR rapid test at our Broomfield clinic for $125 per test (while supplies last). The test is available for non-medical related reasons including testing for travel, surgeries, schools, returning to work, and more. If your test is for traveling, please verify with your airline and destination of travel regarding which test is necessary as everyone is different.
A telehealth visit is not required prior to testing for the PCR rapid test and you’ll have results the same day as the test. To schedule a time for your test, please call 303-558-0509, text us at 720-807-1706, or send us a live chat.

You are welcome to submit for coverage of the test to your insurance for reimbursement. If you would like testing covered by insurance, please consider the PCR test.
If your test is for travel, please verify with your airline and destination of travel regarding which test is necessary.

COVID-19 Services
Along with antigen rapid testing we also offer the following services. If you have questions, please visit our FAQ page.
COVID-19 Lab-Based PCR Testing
Like the rapid test, the COVID-19 lab-based PCR test is a nasal swab test. The test is a molecular test and takes about 3 to 7 days to process. This test is typically covered by most major insurances. Click here to learn more.
Antibody Testing
Antibody blood tests, also called antibody tests, check your blood by looking for antibodies, which show if you had a previous infection with the virus. Antibodies are proteins that help fight off infections. Depending on when someone was infected and the timing of the test, the test may not find antibodies in someone with a current COVID-19 infection.
In addition to the antibody blood test, we highly recommend receiving the nasopharyngeal swab (COVID-19 test) to check for viral shedding, especially if you are asymptomatic. Co-testing is the best way to receive the most accurate results. If interested, please let the provider know during your telehealth visit.
COVID-19 Treatment
Whether you test positive or negative, our providers are here for you until you are feeling better. To help monitor your health, we recommend checking in with us virtually every 1-2 days until you are no longer experiencing symptoms. If we suspect the development of pneumonia or other severe symptoms, antibiotics or additional medical treatment might be required. Please schedule a telehealth visit to meet with our providers. We will recommend re-testing as needed.
