COVID-19 test kits for the Abbott ID NOW machine are available. There is no charge for long-term care providers that request them.
Contact the Long-term Care regulation regional director for your facility’s region if you need COVID-19 test kits for the Abbott ID NOW machine.
This initiative is separate from the BinaxNOW initiative described in PL 2020-49 (PDF). LTC providers in need of BinaxNOW test supplies should continue to follow the BinaxNOW initiative process.
