The service enables the 15-minute self-administered Abbott BinaxNow COVID-19 home test to be used under observation from a certified telehealth proctor, Quest said Jan. 26. The  user will receive a lab report that can then be used for international travel, return to work or school, and to enable prescription treatment by a physician.

Quest said each kit comes with a two-pack of tests that should arrive within two to three business days of purchase. The kits are sold for $70 through QuestDirect.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
