For those with moderate symptoms in need of additional guidance Inova COVID-19 Testing for Established Patients
- Inova offers COVID-19 testing for established primary care patients who are experiencing moderate COVID-19 symptoms. A virtual visit is required to determine if COVID-19 testing is needed.
- Asymptomatic patients or individuals without symptoms who have been exposed to COVID-19 WILL NOT be tested.

Patients only need to schedule an evaluation if they have moderate symptoms and need additional guidance from their primary care provider.
