AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF) – New screening procedures soon to be available at Augusta University.

AU Health has launched an app that allows doctors to engage in telemedicine screenings of patients.

After entering your medical information, you’ll speak on video, with a doctor, answering their questions.

If the responding doctor believes you are at potential risk, they will schedule a drive-thru testing time for you at AU’s Christenberry Fieldhouse on Wrightsboro Road.

Augusta University Health System is reminding residents that the drive through COVID-19 testing sites are by appointment only.

AU’s instructions are as follows:

Please create an account at www.augustaexpresscare.com or download the mobile APP of the same name

You will be directed to participate in a video chat with a physician that is standing by

If you receive a positive screening, you will be scheduled for an appointment at Christenberry Fieldhouse for drive thru testing.
