Since shipping conditions may vary, test developers perform stability testing to ensure that the test performance will remain stable when tests are stored at various temperatures, including shipping during the summer in very hot regions and in the winter in very cold regions. However, test performance may be impacted if the test is used while it is still cold, such as being used outdoors in freezing temperatures or being used immediately after being brought inside from freezing temperatures. The stated performance generally assumes the test is being performed in an environment that is between 15-30⁰C (approximately 59-86⁰F). The specific conditions that were validated are included in the authorized Instructions for use for each test. In order to ensure appropriate test performance with a test that is delivered to you in below-freezing temperatures, you should bring the package inside your home and leave it unopened at room temperature for at least two hours before opening it. Once the package is at room temperature, you may open it and perform the test according to the authorized instructions for use. As long as the test line(s) appear as described in the instructions, you can be confident that the test is performing as it should. If the line(s) do not appear in the correct location(s) and within the correct time as shown in the test instructions when you perform the test, then the results may not be accurate, and a new test is needed to get an accurate result.If you think you had a problem with a COVID-19 test, the FDA encourages you to report the problem through the MedWatch Voluntary Reporting Form.If you have questions, email the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) at DICE@FDA.HHS.GOV or call 800-638-2041 or 301-796-7100.

General

Similar to sharing a physical paper copy of your lab result, your Health Card is a digital method to share your lab results. Your lab report is stored directly within the Health Card or file that only you control. No individual, organization, or application can access your Health Card without your permission. You should only share your Health Card information with trusted organizations. Use caution when sharing; do not share your Health Card if you do not want the other party to see your lab report.

Your Health Card contains your name, date of birth, lab report information, and diagnostic result.

The Data Matrix on the label attached outside the box contains the Test Kit serial number, which is also printed directly below.
The QR code on the Test Card located inside the Test Kit is used to verify and validate a test card during the testing process; it is different than the QR code on the sleeve.
The barcode on the side of the box is a UPC Code – just standard retail code, not used for anything in the test process.

The eMed Lab Report timestamps your test time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which may not be your local time zone. You may search online to find the corresponding UTC to your local time zone if you would like to verify the local time on your eMed Lab Report. We provide you with the continental U.S. time zones and their corresponding UTC for your convenience. We are currently in Daylight Savings Time in parts of the U.S. therefore:

  • the Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) corresponding to Coordinated Universal Time is minus four hours (-04:00);
  • the Central Daylight Time (CDT) corresponding to Coordinated Universal Time is minus five hours (-05:00);
  • the Mountain Daylight Time (MDT) corresponding to Coordinated Universal Time is minus six hours (-06:00);
  • the Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) corresponding to Coordinated Universal Time is minus seven hours (-07:00). If you have any further questions or comments, please contact customer support at (866) 955-1173 or click here to contact customer support.

A Health Card is a digital representation of your lab report displayed as a 2D barcode (QR Code). It contains the same information as the lab report and allows you to share your information with others. Use caution when sharing your Health Card as it contains your name, date of birth, and test information, including results.

Contact eMed Customer Service at 1-866-955-1173 or Click Here . We are open 24/7 to help with any of your eMed needs.

You can use your Health Card to share your eMed lab results with anyone whom you choose to share your information. A Health Card is a verified, authentic, digital copy of your lab report. Different organizations, states, businesses, and countries have different rules for entry regarding COVID-19 health status. Please check the COVID-19 testing and vaccination requirements of your destination in advance. eMed cannot guarantee that a Health card will meet any or all of the destination requirements. A Health Card is not a Travel Pass but can be used to convey your COVID-19 Lab Result when traveling.

eMed is online 24/7 to support your testing needs. There is no appointment necessary, our Telehealth Proctors and customer service specialists are trained to serve you at all times.

Yes. However, for travelers, please be aware that eMed recommends that each individual travels with at least two testing kits at a time. Additionally, each person who tests on eMed.com is required to create an eMed account.
