COVID-19 Testing
The COVID-19 Testing sites is a designated external space equipped to safely test beneficiaries for COVID-19. All official visitors, patients, and staff experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 should report directly to a testing site before conducting business inside the medical or dental clinic.
After your evaluation, COVID-19 testing technicians will provide discharge instructions (i.e. how to access appointments or report for work.)
COVID-19 testing will only be administered by the Emergent Care Center if beneficiaries require emergent care treatment and services.
