​Pontiac, Michigan ­– Urgent cares, pharmacies and doctors' offices are urged to promptly report Oakland County residents COVID-19 test results to the Oakland County Health Division. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act Section 18115 requires that molecular (PCR or Abbott ID NOW) and antigen test results must be reported within 24 hours of test completion through existing public health reporting methods. To meet this requirement, submit Oakland County resident COVID-19 test results to covidresults@oakgov.com. Currently, any laboratories and providers who report COVID-19 test results electronically to the State of Michigan should continue to do so.
