AdventHealth Centra Care has COVID-19 antigen and PCR testing available for patients with a provider visit at all Kansas locations.
Can I come in for just a test?
When you come to AdventHealth Centra Care for a test, you’ll be evaluated by one of our providers (a physician or nurse practitioner) who will then administer the test. If you’re experiencing symptoms, the provider may also suggest treatment options during your appointment. You do not need to have symptoms to be tested.
What’s the cost of a COVID-19 test with insurance?
Centra Care accepts most insurance plans and will bill your plan if you’ve been exposed to COVID-19 or have COVID-19 symptoms. Your deductible or copay may apply depending on your plan benefits. At the time of care, you will be asked to pay your co-pay or deductible. Many insurance plans do not cover a COVID-19 test for work, travel or curiosity.
