Testing for the Active Virus: Sublette County Rural Health Care District medical clinics are able to test symptomatic patients, as well as close contacts to known positive cases, with testing available Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to noon in Pinedale, and 1-5 pm. in Marbleton. Call either clinic for an appointment: Pinedale 307-367-4133, or Marbleton at 307-276-3306. Since all COVID-19 tests must be confirmed by the Wyoming Public Health Laboratory, patients are instructed to stay home, monitor your health, and maintain social distancing until the test results are received back from the state lab.
Testing for all children 18 and younger who are symptomatic is free of charge. For symptomatic adults with health insurance, your health insurance will be billed for the test. Free testing is also available for symptomatic adults who do not have insurance, and for close contacts of positive cases, through a voucher system from Sublette County Public Health.
Saliva Testing: Sublette County Public Health now offers free COVID-19 saliva testing to all county residents over 60 years of age. This testing is for monitoring only, so it is not for individuals who are sick. Public Health is conducting drive-thru testing at the Public Health Office in Pinedale on Mondays 1-4:30 p.m., and at the Marbleton senior center on Tuesdays 2-4 p.m. by appointment only. Please contact Joanie Christie at 307-360-3125 or email joanie.christie@wyo.gov for more information and registration instructions.
Antibody Testing: Antibody tests check your blood by looking for antibodies, which may tell you if you had a past infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. Antibody tests are not used to diagnose a current COVID-19 infection. Antibody tests are available at both medical clinics. Lab appointments are necessary, with a $50 fee due at the time of service.
In addition, residents of the Town of Pinedale are able to get free antibody tests during the month of December at the Pinedale Medical Clinic. This is a program sponsored by the Town of Pinedale. Appointments are mandatory and may be made by calling 307-367-4133.
Residents must provide a town water bill or be on the registered voter list to prove eligibility at check in. Youth may be accompanied by a parent or guardian with one of the credentials listed above.
At-Home Testing: Free, at-home COVID-19 testing is also available to Wyoming residents. The saliva test is administered by Vault Health and allows residents to get results at home without needing to visit a healthcare provider. Visit https://www.vaulthealth.com/covid and order a collection kit. The $150 testing fee is waived for all kits shipped to a Wyoming address and all shipping is prepaid. The saliva is collected during a supervised, online telehealth visit with a Vault test supervisor, which requires an internet connection. Results are reported within 48 hours of when your sample arrives at the lab. More information about Vault testing is available at a dedicated Wyoming Department of Health web page.
