Nursing homes and personal care homes/assisted living residences in yellow and red positivity areas should be receiving BinaxNOW test kits from the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). CDC staff shared an email that should have gone to all provider recipients of the tests on Aug. 23. The email provides instructions on how to reinstate shipments if the provider asked HHS stop sending them. It also offers two contact points. For questions related to shipment deliveries, please email ARDxUSGovernmentSupport@abbott.com. For questions related to the HHS BinaxNOW distribution program, please contact the Binax Team Inbox at Binax.Team@HHS.GOV. Contact Georgia Goodman with questions.
