LACEY, NJ — Urgent Care Now in Lanoka Harbor has coronavirus testing available for all Lacey Township residents. Patients must show a driver's license or government-issued ID showing a Lacey address.

All Lacey residents who show proper identification can get tested, including people not showing symptoms of COVID-19, Urgent Care Now confirmed to Patch.

Residents should also show a valid insurance card, or an original social security card if uninsured.

As New Jersey attempts to move toward universal coronavirus testing, each facility that tests asymptomatic individuals represents a step toward that objective.

Opportunities for asymptomatic patients to get tested have popped up throughout the state. But the Ocean County Health Department's drive-thru testing currently requires patients have be symptomatic and have a healthcare practitioner script.
