On Mar. 21, 2020, through its “Peace of Mind” program, Quest Diagnostics took extra measures to ensure individuals who were the most vulnerable to adverse COVID-19 outcomes had special VIP-level access to the company’s 2,250 patient service centers across the U.S.

Through this new program individuals who are 60 years or older or have other conditions known to raise the risk of an unfavorable outcome from COVID-19 will have special access to these centers during the first hour of each day each center opens. Patients may schedule an appointment or, in centers that allow for walk-ins, show up without an appointment.

Quest Diagnostics patient service centers are not accepting patients with suspected or confirmed Quest recommends concerned individuals contact their healthcare provider directly about COVID-19 testing. Quest is accepting and performing testing on COVID-19 specimens submitted by healthcare providers across the United States.
