Employees with Possible COVID19

If you have an employee with symptoms, their first step is to contact a primary health care provider or secure an on demand visit through virtual care. UPMC in central Pa. has waived the upfront $49 fee for all video visits from March 14, 2020, through June 11, 2020.
