FAQs
1)
What is NAAT?
A Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT) is a type of viral diagnostic test that detects the presence of genetic material (nucleic acids) of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The NAAT process involves making copies of the virus’s genetic material, if any is present in an individual’s specimen. NAAT can detect very small amounts of SARS-CoV-2 genetic material in a specimen, making this test highly sensitive for diagnosing COVID-19.
Labs use different methods to amplify nucleic acids and detect the presence of virus in specimen. For e.g., Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Transcription mediated amplification (TMA), Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) etc.

COVID-19 PCR /NAAT swab testing: This test uses Polymerase Chain Reaction (type of NAAT) for detecting COVID-19 virus in a sample. Results are available within 48 hours and the price is $150+ applicable tax per test.
Rush 12 NAAT swab testing: This test uses Transcription Mediated Amplification (type of NAAT) for detecting COVID-19 virus in a sample. Results are available in 12 hours and the price is $200+applicable tax per test.

Which countries accept NAAT?
Certain destinations like the US, UK and South Korea accept Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT) for travel purposes. Travel requirements change frequently, and it is the responsibility of the traveller to check the COVID-19 Screening requirements of the destination before ordering a Rush 12h NAAT.

4)
What type of COVID-19 test will be performed?
The COVID-19 swab test is a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) that detects COVID-19 infection at the time of the test. The test uses a sample collected from the individual’s nose, using a non-invasive swab that goes approximately 1 cm into the nostril. The test does not indicate if the individual had COVID-19 infection in the past.
