Hi: You are welcome to use health tap's urgent care function, but I believe you may not need an order to get tested. You can more information here, if you haven't done so yet. https://www.doh.wa.gov/Emergencies/COVID19/TestingforCOVID19#Where

CDC guidelines for COVID 19 testing are at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-nCoV/hcp/clinical-criteria.html. However, state & local health departments/ providers make actual testing decisions. Some states require a dr's referral & others don't. People can call their health care provider if they believe they should be tested.
