UPMC Urgent Care: Caring for You During and After COVID-19

Sometimes, your care can’t wait.

At UPMC Urgent Care, we are committed to providing our communities with the safe in-person care they need when they need it most. Walk right in, as no appointment is needed.

The safety of our patients is always our top priority, both during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now You Can Schedule an Appointment Online at Urgent Care at most locations** or walk-in for service.

• Scheduled appointments mean reduced or no wait time
• Schedule an appointment for COVID-19 testing, vaccinations, sports or work physicals, or a visit for a minor injury or illness.
• Walk-ins are accepted
• To schedule an appointment, visit UPMC.com/ScheduleUrgentCare

**Scheduling an appointment online is not available at Urgent Care locations in Erie, Central PA, and Western Maryland.

COVID-19 Testing at UPMC Urgent Care

UPMC Urgent Care will honor any prescription for symptomatic patients (individuals with COVID-19 symptoms), asymptomatic patients, and pre-procedural prescriptions from a UPMC provider.

You must have an order (referral) to schedule online for a COVID-19 test at select UPMC Urgent Care locations. If you already have an order (medical referral) for a COVID-19 test, and scheduled an appointment online, UPMC Urgent Care staff can administer a COVID-19 test while you are in your vehicle or safely inside the office.

COVID-19 test without a written referral or written order

If you already have an order (medical referral) for a COVID-19 test, you can schedule an appointment online to participate in our car-side testing program.

If you do not have an order, you will be asked to come into the UPMC Urgent Care facility for an evaluation to determine whether a test is recommended. Medical evaluations are provided for ‘walk-in’ patients only during regular business hours, first come-first served.

Contact UPMC Urgent Care staff for more information about COVID-19 tests.

We are following all recommendations from the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

• We screen patients and staff for COVID-19 exposure and symptoms.
• We require all adults and children over 2 years old to wear face masks at all times inside UPMC facilities.
• We use hospital-grade disinfectants to extensively clean all of our facilities. We are especially focused on sanitizing high-touch areas like countertops and doorknobs.
• We have a full supply of masks, gowns, gloves, and other personal protective equipment (PPE) to keep our staff and patients safe.
