We demonstrate that an internally derived and validated clinical decision rule, COVID-MATCH65, has a high sensitivity (92.6%) and NPV (99.5%) for SARS-CoV-2 and could be used to aid COVID-19 risk-assessment and resource allocation for SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics. A COVID-19 rapid assessment screening clinic was established at Austin Health on 11 March 2020 with prospective electronic medical record (EMR; eMethods) data of patients presenting to the clinic systematically collected by medical staff from 11 March to 22 April 2020. The positive and negative results for each COVID-MATCH65 score are outlined in eTable 2.
