COVID-19 testing specimens must be ordered by a healthcare professional. The preferred sample type is nasopharyngeal (NP) swab in UTM viral transport media.

Please do not send the patient for COVID-19 specimen collection OR to drop off COVID-19 specimens to any HNL Lab Medicine Patient Center.

Specimens must be collected by a healthcare professional or a designated COVID-19 regional testing site, which can be sent to HNL Lab Medicine for processing.
 
  • Prior to collection, instruct the patient to blow their nose to remove excess mucous.
  • Gently pass the swab through the nose into the posterior nasopharynx.
  • Rub the swab on the nasopharyngeal membrane several times to loosen and collect cellular material.
  • Withdraw the swab and place in UTM tube.
  • Snap off swab at the score mark and screw on cap of UTM tube.

  • Specimen must be refrigerated or frozen.


IMPORTANT: Samples must be picked up by an HNL Lab Medicine courier or processed by one of the designated COVID-19 regional testing and assessment sites. If you require a courier pickup, please contact our Customer Care Department at 877-402-4221.
