Resources and Information

  • What to Expect

  • covid-19-swab.jpg

    During a viral test, a swab that looks like a long Q-tip is used to collect a sample from inside your nose. You will usually be asked to tilt your head back, then the swab will be inserted through your nose into your nasal cavity. You may be directed to self-collect a nasal specimen while under our supervision and guidance.

    This swab can be uncomfortable, but it should not be painful. The discomfort lasts only a few seconds. You may be asked to blow your nose or breathe through your mouth to make the collection process easier.

    拭子从你的呼吸道中收集细胞，以检查是否存在COVID-19。标本可以用一根拭子采集，也可以用拭子擦拭每个鼻孔作为测试的一部分。

    根据检测类型的不同，拭子会被送往实验室进行分析或在诊所进行检查。

  • Billing & Insurance

  • 如果您从OSF HealthCare收到COVID-19检测，OSF将为您的保险开具发票，以支付其检测费用的那部分。根据你的保险计划，你可能需要自费，也可能不需要。

  • Results: What They Mean

  • Results of a COVID-19 test are usually available within three to five days, unless you qualify for a rapid test within a clinic, in which case results may be available sooner.

    There are three possible results of a COVID test:

    • If you test positive for COVID-19, your provider will give you advice about what to do next.
    • If you test negative for COVID-19, you will receive guidance from your provider and should continue to monitor yourself for symptoms.
    • A very small number of tests may be inconclusive.If your result cannot be determined, your provider may recommend you get tested again.

  • Testing & Variant Strains

  • Viruses like the one that causes COVID-19constantly change. Scientists have detected multiple variants, or strains, of this virus throughout the world.

    OSF has confirmed that tests performed in our laboratories will detect these variants and continue to give reliable results.
