COVID-19 Drive-Through at Bergen New Bridge

We offer COVID-19 Nasal PCR and COVID-19 Saliva tests for both surveillance and diagnostic testing. We currently do not provide rapid COVID-19 antigen tests.

What does surveillance mean? It means you currently are not exhibiting any COVID 19 like symptoms or have a known exposure to COVID 19. You are taking this test for work-related purposes (i.e., not vaccinated) or other personal reasons.

If you have a prescription for a diagnostic COVID 19 test, please submit it when you complete the survey.

This is not for travel testing, and we cannot guarantee results or coverage by your insurance company. If your test is considered a surveillance test, your insurance company will most likely not cover the cost of your test. Please check with your insurance company for details on coverage for COVID-19 testing before scheduling a test.

For surveillance testing, you will be required to submit payment before the test is administered.

Fee: $70 per PCR Nasal test.
Fee: $90 per PCR Saliva test

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a physician order to be tested for COVID-19 if I am symptomatic? For diagnostic testing, we recommend having a physician’s order. If you do not have a physician’s order, it is ok. You will need to submit a form stating you are symptomatic or have a known exposure to COVID-19.
How long until I will get my result?
Pop-up test results will be available approximately 48 hours from 8pm on the day you have your COVID-19 test.
