@stephanieshong:

What does that mean? Any nucleic acid lab test?

Not much detail is provided. It is tad vague and generic - We will use the following concept to map:

Hello, @stephanieshong

I would recommend to use

586310 OMOP4912985 Measurement of Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Genetic material using Molecular method

Or any of descendants if you can distinguish Nucleic Acid amplification (705001) and Sequencing (704993)
