Called to ask about covid testing since its the holiday weekend and all Crossett clinics are closed and I was told I would HAVE to register in the ER($$$) and it wasnt guaranteed the Dr would do a covid test!? I thought they wanted people testing? Now they can pick and choose who gets tested? And Ashley County medical center wants to make sure you pay an ER fee IF they are even going to consider testing you. Guess Ill have to wait it out and find an urgent care in Louisiana.
