BinaxNOW Kit question

[20165]

Does anyone know if the BinaxNOW test kit is an acceptable test for the pre cruise, 96 hour, requirement for insurance to kick in if you test positive at the terminal?  

thx

It has to be the proctored version, Abbott BinaxNOW™ COVID-19 Ag Card Home Test, which you can purchase at optum.com or emed.com, not the BinaxNOW test version that you can buy at some drug stores that isn't proctored.
