Claims for testing will be submitted by the lab to your health insurance. No copay or coinsurance fee is to be charged for COVID-19 related testing or services. Testing done through Rutgers Student Health or Rutgers COVID-19 testing program is at zero cost to students. The test is billed through the students’ insurance. For students or employees who may not have health insurance, costs will be covered by the university. If a billing statement from Accurate Diagnostics Lab (ADL) is received for a COVID-19 test, please call ADL to answer information about your insurance (telephone: 732-839-0843). Please call even if you do not have health insurance. Uncovered or denied charges for COVID-19 testing will be paid by the university.
