WEST DES MOINES, Iowa – Hy-Vee will begin offering COVID-19 tests on Monday that produce results in as few as 15 minutes.
The grocery chain says the rapid antibody testing will be available at more than 250 Hy-Vee pharmacy locations.
Patients must register ahead of time through www.hy-vee.com/covidtesting and select “antibody test” to schedule a testing time and location and receive a test voucher. Hy-Vee says the tests will be administered inside the pharmacy at a cost of $25 and may be purchased with any form of payment, including health savings accounts and flexible spending accounts. The test uses a finger stick to collect a small blood sample, which is administered by a trained Hy-Vee Pharmacy team member. After testing is complete, results will be sent to the patient via email that same day.
