COVID-19 Testing

BUHS can provide COVID-19 testing (nasal swab) to determine whether a person is currently infected with the virus. BUHS does have the capacity to perform “rapid” testing for COVID-19. Charges for the testing are $ 60.00. Your insurance may cover the cost.

                                                       PROCEDURE FOR COVID-19 TESTING
