Service Details

About the Japanese encephalitis

Japanese encephalitis is predominantly in many parts of Asia and the Western Pacific. This infection is spread through the bite of an infected mosquito. It does not spread from person to person. It’s important for travelers to have a Japanese encephalitis vaccine regardless of the low risk of infection.

Does my insurance cover my primary care appointment?

At Nao Medical, we accept most major insurance plans, but in order to know if your plan covers the test, we would need to run your insurance and this can only be done at the beginning of your visit. If you would like to know ahead of time, please call the number on the back of your insurance card so a representative may let you know which coronavirus test is covered by your insurance plan.
