Inspire Diagnostics provides a reliable and efficient way to ensure a safe return to campus this spring. Trained Inspire technicians can administer the COVID-19 testing program on-site, or self-swab kits for pre-arrival testing can be mailed at scale. Each kit comes with nasal self swabs, as well as detailed instructions on how to collect a specimen and then overnight it back in the mail to Inspire Diagnostics’ CLIA-licensed laboratory. Once samples are received, results are automatically reported to participants within 24 – 48 hours.
