WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - Velocity Urgent Care is now offering free COVID-19 tests for uninsured patients under the federal CARES Act.

COVID-19 testing is now free to patients who are not currently enrolled in private insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare or VA Benefits.

Uninsured patients are asked to sign an affidavit of eligibility.

For patients with insurance, the government has instructed private insurance companies, Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare and the Veterans Administration to fully cover the cost of COVID19 medical evaluations and lab tests. There is no co-pay or deductible collected for COVID-19 services at Velocity Urgent Care.

Velocity Urgent Care also has expanded its hours to offer more convenient access to patients.

Velocity Urgent Care welcomes patients to walk-in or can save time by checking in and registering online.
