Insured individuals are encouraged to use other testing sites.
Austin, Texas – As more COVID-19 testing sites come online, Austin Public Health (APH) has a new and accessible map Austin-Travis County residents can use a local resource.
- COVID-19 test locations map: https://arcg.is/PzPza
The map, which will be available on AustinTexas.gov/COVID19, shows stationary and mobile COVID-19 test locations throughout Austin and the surrounding area. The map also includes information on the site operating hours and which lab the company uses for processing the tests.
Along with APH-operated sites, the map shows other testing options for those who have insurance or a primary care provider. APH encourages people who have insurance to utilize other testing sites so we can be the safety net for those without insurance or a primary care provider.
In Austin-Travis County, COVID-19 testing is offered at pharmacies, urgent care centers and other private testing locations. Individuals with insurance should not be charged for the standard PCR COVID-19 test per the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (PDF) and the CARES Act, both passed by Congress in March, but people should contact their doctor and insurance company to determine the location to take the test.
For providers that would like their information added to the map, they can do so here.
