Kim, my doctor here in Florida scheduled me for the PCR test. They had no trouble with my needing it to travel.
Swab taken at local affilated lab and sent out for results. My test results were back in 3 days into my "portal".
And best of all it was no cost to me. Insurance company (Health First) was doing them by appointment/ schedule as community service.
The free public testing in my area has long lines and hours of waiting.

My recommendation to all is that your first call is to your doctor office for best details on your options.
