Know Before You Go

This is a free service that can be obtained without a doctor’s referral.
While this is a free service, you will be asked to show 1) photo identification and 2) healthcare employee or first responder ID/badge, if applicable.

Patients utilizing drive-thru testing sites must be seated at a functioning window. Once you get in line at the CBTS, you will not be permitted to exit your car.

For the safety of the testing personnel, drive-thru sites will not be able to accommodate walk-up individuals.

Please note - Patients receiving required pre-surgery or pre-procedure testing should receive that test as directed by their doctor’s office to avoid delays.
