RSV Rapid Antigen Test

Washington, DC rates for HCPCS 87420

This test checks a nasal or respiratory sample for proteins from respiratory syncytial virus, commonly called RSV, using a rapid immune-based method. It helps quickly identify RSV as the cause of cold-like or breathing symptoms, which is especially useful in infants, young children, and older adults who are more vulnerable to this virus. A positive result confirms current infection.
