The facility to draw samples has been set up in other hospitals in Delhi. Similarly, three private labs have been authorised in Gurugram adjoining Delhi to conduct these tests. A senior Haryana Health Department officer said there laboratories in Gurugram are Strand Life Sciences in Sector 34, SRL Ltd in Sector 18, and Core Diagnostics Pvt Ltd in Udyog Vihar Phase I. These labs will charge a total of Rs 4,500 for each test --- Rs 1,500 for screening and Rs 3,000 for confirmatory tests only, as per the government fixed limit, and as per the norms set by the Indian Council of Medical Research, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

These labs will use 50 per cent of their respective capacities to test samples of suspected corona cases sent by government authorities. Private medical practitioners referring their patients for testing for suspected coronavirus cases are required to report their names, addresses and contact numbers to the Haryana Heath Department. Both private doctors and labs in Haryana would keep the government posted of suspected and confirmed cases through their respective district's Civil Surgeon.
