StarMed Healthcare uses combination testing to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The best and most effective way to test throughout this pandemic is Nasal Swab and Rapid Serology combination testing. Because these tests have different advantages and limitations, we leverage both methods when it makes sense to provide the most comprehensive results for our patients and research efforts across the country.”
~ Dr. Arin Piramzadian, CMO, StarMed Healthcare

- Rapid Serum Antibody tests have not been reviewed by the FDA.
- Results from antibody testing should not be used as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude SARS-CoV-2 infection or to inform infection status.
- Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in those who have been in contact with the virus. Follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals.
- Positive results may be due to past or present infection with non-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus strains, such as coronavirus HKU1, NL63, OC43, or 229E.
- Patients selecting self-pay are attesting to the fact that they do not have any individual or group health plan that is in effect at the time they are filling out their information for testing.
