Sameday Health Brings COVID Rapid Tests to NCF
For your convenience, this year at NCF Sameday Health will be onsite in Lot 5 from 10-5pm offering 15 minute COVID rapid antigen tests.
Sameday Health is one of the nation’s leading COVID testing providers, individuals can easily book their testing appointment via Sameday’s innovative scheduling software, have access to short-to-zero in-person wait times, gold standard rapid RT-PCR priority and standard testing, and a painless experience with an non-invasive nasal swab.
Here’s how it works:
-
Don’t want to wait in line? Visit this link to pre-book tests during the testing hours. Testing hours will be from 10-5pm in Lot 5. PLEASE NOTE: Lot 5 is held for ADA parking. If you do not require ADA parking, we ask that you park in Lots 8, 8A or Lot 3 and then walk over to Lot 5.
-
If you do not pre-register, you can book an appointment onsite through an intake form and pay via insurance ($15) or self-pay ($65).
-
When you register, the Sameday system generates a unique QR code which is used to scan you in before testing (the whole process takes less than 3 minutes).
-
The rapid antigen test takes 15 minutes. Results are finalized with a tech, and a result and report is instantly generated and sent via text and email to your phone.
-
Once you have your digital results showing a negative result for COVID-19, take your government issued ID and festival ticket to the main gate and you’re in!
If you don’t want to pay for rapid testing onsite, you can purchase a variety of tests online from Amazon, Instacart or Walgreens. They generally take 15 minutes to produce a result and if you scan the QR code, your results will be sent directly to your phone.
If you have the time to plan ahead, check out these options, some of which are free of charge:
We hope having rapid testing onsite makes life a bit easier for you, and we appreciate your help in making NCF 2021 a bit safer for all of our guests.
