“Our goal is to provide convenient and quality healthcare options to our communities,” says Dr. Mark Montano, Medical Director for CareNow Denver. “We are proud to partner with American Airlines to offer efficient and reliable pre-flight COVID-19 testing to help ensure travelers are safe and healthy.”

Travelers may schedule an appointment by utilizing Web Check-In® at CareNow.com and selecting one of three options, including:
