COVID-19 Testing for Corporations
The federal COVID-19 public health emergency is set to end on May 11, 2023. As per California law, most insurance carriers will continue to cover COVID-19 testing. It’s important to note that while we are a participating provider of Medi-Cal and Medicare, we are considered out-of-network for commercial payers. Consequently, we recommend patients verify any potential changes to their policies with their insurance carriers before undergoing testing, as coverage and cost-sharing for COVID-19 testing may now differ based on the insurance plan.

Pangea Laboratory's PCR Test Kit: Quick SARS-CoV-2 rRT-PCR Test Kit
We understand that technological access and uptake can vary across each company, or even within your workforce, which is why we will work with you to find the right testing solution for your business.
Some teams will benefit from being able to electronically register their data, schedule a telehealth consultation and receive their results all on one convenient app. Others may find it easier to fill out a physical copy of a form and see a medical professional in person who can perform the test for them to ensure more accurate results.
Whatever your team’s needs, we have worked with our telehealth partners to offer a variety of options for you to choose from.
Some of our testing options include:
Drive-up testing at conveniently located testing sites, with tests performed by qualified medical professionals and scheduled online to work around your team’s schedule
On-site testing pop-ups, with symptom screening and tests performed by qualified medical professionals throughout the workday
Concierge-style service and at-home test kits, with test kits dropped off and picked up from your doorstep. Tests are performed under the guidance of a qualified medical professional as part of a telehealth consultation
Corporate COVID-19 Testing You Can Trust
Reliable
Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) approved PCR Testing
The Quick SARS-CoV-2 rRT-PCR Kit can be used to test nasal and throat specimens and has been designed to minimize the likelihood of false positive test results. The test has been made available under the EUA and is more accurate than most rapid tests. The FDA’s SARS-Cov 2 Reference Panel has also ranked this kit as the most sensitive PCR test available. Compared to the closest competing PCR tests available under the EUA, ours can accurately detect up to 2.5x smaller amounts of viral material in each sample.
By testing for the presence of RNA from SAR-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, a PCR test can help reduce even asymptomatic exposure and spread.
The test can either be performed at a testing site or an on-site pop-up test center by qualified medical professionals trained to extract high-quality specimens or at home under the guidance of a telehealth professional.
Effective
Fast turnaround time
Our laboratory has maintained a turnaround time of within 24 hours of receiving a sample at our facility, delivering timely and accurate results.

Our telehealth partners deliver results in a way that remains HIPAA compliant, and the data is kept secure to protect the privacy and confidentiality of each employee. De-identification will also be done before mandatory reporting of positive cases to the state.
Corporate COVID-19 Testing You Can Trust
COVID-19 Testing for OSHA Compliance
While the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) withdrew the vaccination and testing emergency temporary standard (ETS) as an enforceable temporary standard on January 26, 2022, the agency is not withdrawing the ETS as a proposed rule and is still working on finalizing a permanent COVID-19 Health Standard.
These requirements are continually evolving but testing consistently remains at the front line of helping businesses maintain a safe and healthy workplace. We strongly recommend that businesses continue to plan ahead, and not wait until they have been negatively impacted by COVID-19 or are mandated to take action.
The most recent round of Cal/OSHA directives include:
Employers must make no-cost COVID-19 testing available to all employees after close contact
Employers must offer COVID-19 testing to all employees who are part of an “exposed group”
Taking steps now to enhance workplace safety helps to reduce corporate liability down the line and keeps employees and even customers safer. Preventing the spread of COVID-19 in your workplace will also help your business maintain productivity and stay ahead of the competition. We provide easy-to-read data for auditing purposes.
The CDC’s recommendations on recurring testing suggest that tests be performed regularly at 2-to-3-week intervals, but we can work with you to design daily, weekly, or monthly testing protocols, depending on your business’s actual needs.
COVID-19 Testing for Business Travel
For International Business Travel
Most overseas travel currently requires proof of a negative COVID-19 test to be allowed entry. PCR tests like the one we provide, are suitable for international travel, and our quick turnaround means you will be able to get certified results within 24 hours of the sample being delivered to our laboratory.
For Domestic Business Travel
While not mandatory, CDC recommends that business travelers within the US get a COVID-19 test 1 to 3 days prior to travel. Making testing easily available for your employees helps maintain peace of mind and reduces the chances of spreading the virus.
COVID-19 Testing for Corporate Events
Large-scale events are returning and testing for all attendees can help make them safer and more successful. We can work with you to deliver an on-site testing pop-up or have testing kits sent out to attendees beforehand.
Beyond conferences, we can also provide COVID testing solutions for other large-scale events including Summer Camps, Music Festivals, and more.
COVID-19 Testing for Schools
Keeping kids and school staff safely in the classroom and preventing schools from becoming the next source of widespread COVID is crucial. Frequent testing of the school population can help identify positive clusters before they have a chance to spread and disrupt in-person learning.
While outbreaks may be inevitable, timely testing can help curb the spread of the virus. It can also ensure that staff and students who may have been exposed to the virus know for sure whether they have been infected or not, so they can safely return to school without serving out an unnecessary quarantine.
Providing staff and students with access to reliable in-school testing services with a quick turnaround of results is key to allowing schools to operate as normal while maintaining a safer and healthier environment for everyone.
We offer comprehensive COVID-19 testing solutions for K-12 and college campus testing.
