The COVID-19 RT-PCR test is a real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2 in upper and lower respiratory specimens (such as nasopharyngeal) collected from individuals suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider.

Results are for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. The SARS-CoV-2 RNA is generally detectable in respiratory specimens during the acute phase of infection.

FAQ

Employers can ask employees to provide the following information:

  • A positive result for, or other diagnosis with, COVID-19;
  • Symptoms of infection with COVID-19, e.g., fever of or over 100.4°F, cough, shortness of breath, sore throat;
  • “Close contact” (as defined by the Centers for Disease Control) with any person who has tested positive for, or has otherwise been diagnosed with, COVID-19 infection within the preceding 14 days;
  • Whether the employee has been asked to self-quarantine by a health official within the preceding 14 days;
  • Whether the employee has traveled to, or stopped over in, a country for which the CDC has issued a Level 3 travel health notice; and
  • Depending on geographic location, whether the employee is considered “high risk” for COVID-19 infection, meaning over age 60, pregnant, or suffering from diabetes, lung disease, heart disease, asthma, HIV, or similar conditions.

Employers may be able to require employees to be tested if they have symptoms of COVID-19 and, nonetheless, assert that they are fit for work.

Yes. However, employers should implement a temperature check protocol to ensure that temperature checks are designed to reduce the threat that an employee with COVID-19 poses to the workplace. Temperature checks should be reliable, effective, performed consistently, and respect employees’ privacy. For example, all employees entering facilities should be checked only by trained personnel and the results should be treated as confidential.

Generally, no. HIPAA imposes obligations to safeguard protected health information (PHI) only on covered entities, which are defined to include health plans, health care clearinghouses, and health care providers. An employer acting in its capacity as an employer is not subject to HIPAA. Other laws, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or state confidentiality laws, may apply.

No. The ADA prohibits such a disclosure. However, the employer can provide co-workers with information that would help them evaluate the risk of infection.

Covid-19 health care costs are covered by health insurance carriers.  A doctor’s visit is necessary for the claim to be filed and paid.  The POC test (Nasal or oral swap) is covered.   Rapid antibody tests are currently covered if they are performed by a CLIA (certified lab) testing facility.  Rapid antibody testing is used for a mass pre-screening and is not diagnostic or giving medical advise.  The test is only intended for informational purpose and is the participant’s responsibility to seek medical care pending test outcome.
