ANTIBODY TESTING

Antibody testing is for people who are feeling generally healthy, are not having current symptoms of COVID-19, and may have recovered from the coronavirus infection. To ensure our patient's and staff's safety, we may refuse to draw your blood if you have had a new or worsening fever, cough, or shortness of breath within the last two weeks. If you are currently sick, please talk to your doctor about having the molecular diagnostic (swab) test instead.

MAKE AN ANTIBODY TESTING APPOINTMENT

Hours of Operation

Monday – Friday 9 am – 4 pm


Our antibody testing is:

Performed without a doctor's order
Cost – $55
For Ohio residents, age 18 or older only

We ask that all people coming to the testing site wear a mask.

At the check-in area, all patients and visitors will be screened for fever or other symptoms consistent with COVID-19 to ensure you are an appropriate candidate for an antibody test and do not require the swab test. If you are cleared for the antibody test, a caregiver will draw a vial of blood from your arm.

The test results will be available within 48 hours through the KCH Patient Portal.
