Additional COVID-19 drive-thru testing sites are available at three El Paso CVS Pharmacy locations.

As the novel coronavirus continues to loom in our community, CVS Health has begun offering self-swab tests to individuals meeting Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria which include:

  • First responders
  • Healthcare providers
  • Symptomatic - Anyone with symptoms of COVID-19
  • Individuals in high-risk groups (persons over 65 years of age and those with underlying medical conditions)
  • Asymptomatic - without symptoms

Testing will take place through the CVS pharmacy drive-thru window only with the turn around test results available in approximately three days and available on CVS’s Minute Clinic portal. Individuals must register in advance at CVS.com to schedule an appointment.

CVS El Paso Testing Locations:

  • 8041 N. Mesa Street, Suite A
  • 1780 N Lee Trevino Drive
  • 12051 Tierra Este Road

Testing hours of operation vary per CVS store and residents are asked to visit online to schedule an appointment.

The test is free – the CVS pharmacy will accept insurance at the drive-thru test sites while uninsured patients will be covered under a program funded by the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
