What
Global travel management company Frosch International Travel, Inc., has partnered with Sollis Health, a concierge medical service, to offer expedited COVID-19 testing. Effective immediately, Frosch clients now have access to an array of convenient COVID-19 PCR testing options and expedited results in New York and Los Angeles, with more locations on the way. The turnaround time for results will be 24-48 hours.

Why It Matters
Frosch has taken a creative approach to the ongoing industry-wide problem of reliable — and timely — COVID-19 testing before travel. Frosch clients will benefit from the convenience of testing offered at Sollis centers; on-site locations for groups in New York or Los Angeles; or via house call service in Los Angeles and the greater New York area, including the Hamptons. Hopefully this move will encourage other companies to find solutions that encourage clients to travel as we slowly emerge from the pandemic.

Fast Facts
- Frosch is co-headquartered in New York City and Houston. With 2,200 employees in more than 40 locations on six continents, it is among the world’s top 15 travel management companies, according to Travel Weekly, generating more than $2.2 billion in annual travel spend.

- Sollis Health is a bicoastal members-only medical concierge service with 24-hour facilities designed to handle emergencies, check-ups and everything in between, with no appointment or wait. The company’s COVID-19 protocols include at-home testing and comprehensive care with telemedicine by emergency room physicians and round-the-clock house calls.

What They Are Saying
“In this increasingly complex environment, a travel advisor’s role has changed dramatically, and it is incumbent on us to provide our clients with innovative solutions to the challenges we face today when it comes to travel,” said Lara Leibman, executive vice president of Frosch. “We’re delighted to partner with Sollis, a group of forward-thinking health professionals focused on creating the best medical experience possible. We want to help our clients travel safely and confidently so they can rediscover the joy of travel and the fulfillment it brings. Sollis’ clinical expertise, efficient testing procedures and fast results are a key component to achieving that goal.”

“Partnering with Frosch, a worldwide leading travel company, offers an excellent opportunity to expand access to our healthcare solutions,” said Andrew Olanow, co-founder of Sollis. “We share similar standards when it comes to providing the very best service, and we both want to ensure good health and safety so people feel comfortable traveling again. We look forward to working together.”
