New covid testing requirements before arriving

[Celinda]

I was able to get ours for November with our health dept. But it took 5 days but is free. If we go through urgent care to order the rapid test we also have to pay a dr fee of $120 each. But we can get it within a few minutes. So our April trip is costing at least $350 for covid test both ways with the 72 hours. So now Im searching for a rapid test that doesn't require a dr visit.

Celinda if you are flying out of Ohare they do the tests there at the airport for $120

Thanks but we Fly out of Southbend. We used to drive to Ohare but with a park and fly or just the 2 hour drive. The extra cost is worth it.

Oh geeze a Dr. fee is crazy! I’m in White Plains New York and a rapid antigen test one of our local walk in clinic cost $100... I think to enter back into the US a PCR test is needed? I’m not sure how much I have to pay for that when I’m in Negril. On the brighter side though airfare is significantly cheaper?

DeeDee,

An antigen test works getting back to the US. US$50 at the airport and in Negril.... we are making it easy.
