Two types of testing will be available:

  • Antibody Blood testing: The cost for antibody blood testing is about $45 and is NOT covered by insurance.
  • Diagnostic Nasal Swab testing: (covered by most insurances)

Premier Medical Group is providing the testing. Participants will be screened on-site in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance.

“Antibody blood testing is a key addition to Maui County’s continued fight against COVID-19,” Mayor Victorino said. “Remember, if you’re unable to attend this week’s drive-through events, there are many local clinics that provide antibody and diagnostic testing.”
