Alberta Health has announced that beginning July 18, several eligibility and operational changes to the PCR testing program will come into effect. Albertans needing PCR tests will require a laboratory requisition from a medical professional and some testing locations will change.
For those who meet the eligibility criteria (see below), the AHS online assessment tool will continue to be used to book appointments at AHS sites. In some communities, testing will take place at AHS clinics designated as swabbing sites, integrated with other services. Where testing is needed to inform treatment decisions, clinics can choose to perform testing on site or refer to an AHS location.
