Fast, Accurate Molecular Diagnostics for Urgent Care Clinics

Urgent Care centers rely on rapid, reliable information to evaluate patients, reduce wait times, and deliver immediate, effective care. Chronetyx provides high-speed molecular diagnostics results designed to help urgent care teams diagnose more confidently, treat more accurately, and minimize unnecessary follow-up visits.

We provide next-day results across four core services ideal for Urgent Care:

• Respiratory PCR
• Urine PCR (UTI) (with Antibiotic Resistance Detection)
• STI PCR
• Wound PCR (with Antibiotic Resistance Detection)

All testing runs on our fully automated molecular platform — ensuring speed, consistency, and exceptional accuracy.

Why Urgent Care Centers Choose Chronetyx

Results When You Need Them — Within a Day

Most tests return actionable results the next day. This supports quick follow-up for patients who need targeted therapy and reduces unnecessary callbacks.

Accurate Triage for High-Throughput Clinics

PCR detects pathogens that rapid antigen tests and culture often miss, reducing false negatives and improving clinical decision-making.

Avoid Unnecessary Antibiotics

Our panels clearly distinguish viral vs. bacterial infections, helping providers prescribe confidently and promote antibiotic stewardship.

Unaffected by Prior Antibiotic Use

PCR remains reliable even when patients begin treatment before specimen collection.

Competitive Pricing

Advanced molecular testing at the same cost profile as traditional Culture & Sensitivity.

Simple, Quick Workflow

• Free courier pickup (Memphis area)
• Free FedEx return shipping nationally
• Easy single-swab or urine collection kits
• Results delivered automatically to EHR systems

Our Urgent Care Panels

Respiratory PCR Panel

One swab, fast answers for respiratory symptoms.

Detects 16 common upper-respiratory pathogens including SARS-CoV-2, Flu A/B, RSV, Human Metapneumovirus, Parainfluenza, and Mycoplasma pneumoniae.

Benefits:

• More accurate than rapid antigen tests
• Helps avoid unnecessary antibiotics
• Ideal for peak cold/flu/RSV season
• Provides clarity for return-to-work/school guidance

Urine PCR (UTI) Panel

Precision diagnostics for one of urgent care’s most frequent complaints.

PCR identifies uropathogens with far greater sensitivity than culture and reflexes to antibiotic resistance panels when pathogens are present.

Benefits:

• Clear results for painful or uncomfortable urination, flank pain, and recurrent UTIs
• Critical for patients who have tried OTC remedies or antibiotics
• Eliminates “mixed flora” ambiguity from traditional culture
• Guides targeted treatment the first time

STI PCR Panel

Fast, confidential screening for sexually transmitted infections.

Detects:

• Chlamydia (CT)
• Gonorrhea (NG)
• Trichomonas (TV)
• Mycoplasma genitalium (MG)

Benefits:

• Highly accurate even in asymptomatic patients
• Non-invasive urine-based sample collection
• Supports rapid treatment and partner notification
• Helps reduce follow-up visits and complications

Wound PCR Panel

Rapid, precise identification for wound infections and abscesses.

PCR identifies pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes up to 5 days faster than culture.

Benefits:

• Early targeted treatment for cellulitis, abscesses, and post-injury infections
• Reduces risk of hospitalization
• Identifies polymicrobial infections missed by culture
• Improves outcomes for diabetic, elderly, or immunocompromised patients
