LabCorp Launches COVID-19 Testing Service to Help Workers Get Back on the Job

On Thursday, diagnostic testing company Laboratory Corporation of America (NYSE: LH) launched a new service for businesses through which it will assess employees' health and test them for  COVID-19  as part of a return-to-work process.

The service can be provided at the employer's site or at LabCorp facilities. The screening process involves the completion of a questionnaire and a non-invasive temperature check to identify individuals with possible COVID-19 symptoms. The employer can also authorize a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, the nasal swab test that reveals currently active cases of COVID-19. Test samples can be collected on-site by LabCorp staff, or the employee can be provided with an at-home collection kit.
