Testing Options and Locations

If you are concerned that you may have COVID-19 because you have symptoms, we recommend that you test right away. If you are concerned that you have COVID-19 because you know you had an exposure to someone who tested positive for COVID-19, we recommend that you get tested 3-5 days after exposure, regardless of vaccination status. If testing with an at-home test and you receive a negative result on your first test, take a second test within 24-48 hours.

In-Person Testing and Over-the-Counter Tests

Several testing options and locations are available in Spokane County, including local clinics and pharmacies offering testing, low- and no-cost options, and over-the-counter at-home testing kits.

  • If you have a primary care provider, contact them to inquire about testing, or contact a local pharmacy.
  • You can also purchase over-the-counter (at-home) tests at most pharmacies. See the at-home testing tab above for more information about at-home tests.

Cost

It is always best to check insurance coverage and cost at the time you schedule an appointment. If you have private insurance, contact your insurance provider to learn about your COVID-19 testing coverage options.
