Safety Simplified.

COVID testing made easy for your organization.

What sets us apart

  • Simple

    We make it easy for organizations to incorporate testing into their routine. There are NO CONTRACTS and testing is FREE. We are highly adaptable and capable of scaling up starting with as little as 10 tests to thousands of tests. Our lab can process over 100,000 samples per week. There is no need to wait until 80%+ members have signed consent forms to get started. Get started TODAY!

  • Environmental

    Many testing companies are stuck in the carbon age using lots of paper in the onboarding and documentation process increasing its waste footprint. We bring all the conveniences that technology has afforded us and bring testing to the digital age with requisition and consent forms all done online and report results electronically. There is no need to fill the same forms every week.

  • Community

    Being charitable is a big part of who we are. To show our commitment to charity, we give back 10% of our net proceeds back to the organization or to another organization of its choice.

Our Process

  • Organization Engagement

    Organizations searching for a testing solution can start with My Shepherd at any time. It all begins with a conversation to understand the organization’s needs in terms of how many weekly tests, age range of members, testing style, schedule and creating a deployment plan. The organization assigns a liaison that works with My Shepherd to implement the deployment strategy.

  • Customization

    From engagement, we move onto customization. No two organizations are alike and as such, we have built a series of features and modules that meet the unique needs of the organization. Bringing testing to the digital age also requires constant improvement and we look forward to rolling out new features all the time. Features and design increase member engagement and to further this mission, organizations will get a unique landing page that can be branded.

  • Deployment

    We work closely with organizations to troubleshoot issues and strive to achieve maximum efficiency. Our goal is to minimize disruptions so organizations can proceed with their daily activities. Activities are closely monitored to maintain performance and increase member experience. This leads to higher member engagement of our services resulting in safer environments.

FAQs

 

What COVID-19 test does My Shepherd Testing use?

We offer our RT-PCR test from DiaCarta which provides a sensitivity rate of 100% and a specificity of 100% at 100 copies/ml. This is one of the most sensitive tests currently approved by the FDA and very effective in early detection.

How Will I Get My Results?

Results will be promptly sent to your email and phone via SMS. If your result is positive, you may also be contacted by phone. Results are typically ready within 24 hours after our lab receives the sample.

What Should I Do If I Have a Positive Result?

A positive result means that the test has detected signs of an infection. Many people are asymptomatic meaning you may not show symptoms of being sick, however, if you’re currently not exhibiting symptoms it doesn’t mean you won’t at a later time as symptoms typically show up between 4 to 7 days after infection. If you have positive results, we recommend following the CDC's official COVID guidelines to keep you and those around you as safe as possible.

How Accurate are the Tests We Use?

Our tests have a sensitivity rate of 99.8% and specificity of 99% at 100 copies per mL. This is one of the most sensitive tests currently on the market.

Should I Get Tested for COVID-19?

In general, the answer is yes for a variety of reasons:

  • Displaying symptoms of a COVID infection

  • Possible exposure to someone with COVID-19

  • Have an upcoming event such as a wedding or gathering with friends, family and congregations

  • If a co-worker or employee is suspected of having COVID or shows COVID symptoms.

  • If you’re planning on traveling, many airlines and destinations require a test prior to travel, however, please check with your airline and destination for details.

Do You Accept My Insurance?

My Shepherd Testing accepts all insurance types from PPO’s to HMO’s. We will also accept individuals without insurance. Tests are covered under insurance for certain situations such as recent exposure to COVID, someone exhibiting symptoms or individuals who are attending a large gathering and this applies to office and education environments.

Is Your COVID-19 Testing Painful?

Our nasal swab collection makes it easy for the patient to administer it comfortably. These swabs do not go deep in the nasal passage (anterior nares) making sample collection easy and convenient.
