Last week, I shared with you the good news that UW Medicine is now offering priority scheduling for COVID-19 testing for family members living in the same household as employees. In response to questions, I want to add that family testing is available for children as well as adults. I also want to clarify that we have different protocols in place for employees and household members to request testing.
- Employee Household Members: Call the priority testing number to get an appointment through our Contact Center: 206.520.5050.
- Employees: Fill out our UW Medicine COVID-19 Testing Survey. After you complete the survey, you can schedule your appointment through Calendly.
I hope you enjoyed a good break over the Labor Day weekend and thanks, as always, for your feedback to my messages.
Sincerely,
John Lynch, MD, MPH
