Open Door Health Services’ no-cost COVID-19 testing site will offer its final day of testing on Thursday, June 30.

Suzanne Clem, Open Door’s Vice President of Community Engagement, says the testing location at 1651 E. 29th St. in Muncie, near the Open Door Urgent Care site, has operated since last year as a state-contracted community testing site. She says that contract concludes today.

Clem says people seeking free testing can continue to view no-cost community testing options.

Open Door’s testing will largely shift toward its established patients whose providers recommend testing within an office visit. Clem says community members who utilize Open Door Urgent Care will have access to testing at that site if a provider says it’s necessary due to symptoms.

She adds this particular testing service will have a cost. Insurance will be billed when applicable, and sliding fee discounts based on household size and income are available at Open Door Urgent Care for those who qualify, Clem says.

Households may also request at-home tests from the federal government. Community organizations in need of at-home test kits for those whom they serve may request tests from Open Door by emailing info@opendoorhs.org.

Clem reminds the public the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention still emphasizes the importance of testing after exposure to COVID-19 or for those with symptoms. Those with symptoms should test immediately and follow quarantine guidance until they know their results. Those with close contact exposure to someone who has COVID-19 should test at least five days after exposure.
