CVS Health Corp. will offer Covid-19 antibody testing nationwide at its MinuteClinic locations within CVS retail stores, the company said Monday.
CVS had previously piloted antibody testing at a subset of about 100 MinuteClinic locations in Texas and Massachusetts. That program garnered steady interest from consumers, said Sharon Vitti, the executive in charge of MinuteClinic. CVS has roughly 1,100 MinuteClinic locations within CVS Pharmacy stores in 33 states, plus Washington, D.C.
Antibody testing can determine whether a person was previously infected with Covid-19. The test used at MinuteClinic uses a blood sample taken from a finger stick.
CVS said it charges $38 for an antibody test.
