MDabroad introduces Booking Concierge for pre-flight testing
The service is geared toward travellers who need a mandatory pre-departure Covid-19 clearance prior to boarding their flight
The medical assistance provider’s Booking Concierge will notify the traveller within an hour via secure, confidential communication about the time and location of their pre-flight appointment. The test result will be delivered directly to the patient’s smartphone and is accepted by all airlines. The fee for the concierge service is US$25.
“Proof of a negative Covid-19 screening test is a universal prerequisite for travel,” said Scott J Rosen, President and CEO of MDabroad. “Our service ensures hassle-free access to a licensed lab in an environment that is rather challenging for the traveller to navigate on their own.”
Ensuring tests are real
“MDabroad’s robust network of high-quality medical providers ensures that travellers receive real tests in a region that is rife with counterfeit testing,” added Dr Giambini, Medical Director of MDabroad.
Cost of the PCR testing is paid directly by the traveller to the service provider at the time service is rendered. Cost of testing varies from country to country, ranging from no cost at all in some locations in Mexico, to upwards of $400 for concierge PCR Testing service in the traveller’s hotel room (where available in Mexico, Panama and the Dominican Republic).
