Residents of Lancaster County who fear they may have been exposed to or are exhibiting symptoms of CoVID-19 should contact their primary care physician by phone or telemedicine to discuss what actions they should take. Due to the limited resources for testing, only patients exhibiting CoVID-19 symptoms- fever over 100.3 degrees, dry cough, difficulty breathing – will be referred by their doctor for testing or other actions.
The local hospitals providing testing for CoVID-19 are:
Lancaster General Health
Pennsylvania College of Health Sciences
850 Greenfield Road
Lancaster, PA 17601
7:00 AM to 7:00 AM Daily
WellSpan
Ephrata Community Hospital
169 Martin Avenue
Ephrata, PA 17522
UPMC Lititz
1500 Highlands Drive
Lititz, PA 17543
Patients should call the hospital before arriving for testing. Those patients utilizing the testing sites will require a paper physician order or have that order processed through their electronic medical records system. It may take several days to receive the results of the test.
