Huh. That is discouraging, that the website is not correct. Do they have the Binax Now test there, that they administer (as compared to the home test)?

I just got my ID Now tests results from Walgreens yesterday and it had a QR code. Also as to the original post, GaKaye is correct, their website is not totally correct. You should call the individual locations direct to be sure. And on that note, don't hit the buttons regarding COVID Testing, it all automated. Hit the choice to talk directly to the pharmacist. Some stores do both, some one OR the other and some neither. They also run out of supplies, but their automated scheduling show available appointments. I ended up having to pass 4 different Walgreens to get to the one I eventually used 2 towns over. Not a big deal, but glad I new ahead of time instead of wasting precious time.
As I said in a previous post, tested at noon and had my approval from EHAS at 4:00PM, all in 1 day.

Some Walgreen's do the ID-Now, some do the regular PCR and some do the BinaxNow. If you book an ID-Now that's what you will have done. Some do both PCR's...and the advance booking time looks to have been increased to 5 days prior....
We have scheduled a CVS PCR since there was a 14 day advance booking availability but will cancel if I can get the ID-Now at Walgreen's scheduled The point that I'm making is that their website stated that our local Walgreens did have the ID Now test. Whenever I tried to schedule that, the website said that no appointments were available. When I went into the store, I was told that they don't offer that test, and that they never have. I was also told that if I was able to make an appointment, it would just be canceled. It does pay to visit or call just to make sure.

Interesting....when I filled out the questionnaire and did a mock appointment application it shows which Walgreen's does which test and appointment availability for each...some do both others only one. Are you saying that making an appointment at a location that does the IDNow is not reliable? I wasn't able to actually schedule an appointment, but when I asked in person at the store, they said if I had been able to make the appointment, it would have been canceled, since they don't have that particular test. So yes, that's possible.
