Camp Hill, Pennsylvania-based Rite Aid continues to expand COVID-19 testing sites with new locations opening in York, Pennsylvania, and Pittsburgh through its partnership with the White House Coronavirus Task Force.
In addition to the current self-testing sites in Philadelphia and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, the company has opened two new locations at its stores located at 4111 William Penn Highway in Monroeville and 115 Leader Heights Road in York. The sites will be open for testing 9 a.m.-5 p.m. seven days a week and expect to be able to conduct approximately 200 tests each day.
In coordination with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the company expects to have additional drive-up COVID-19 testing locations open soon at Rite Aid stores in New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Michigan, Connecticut and Virginia.
All Rite Aid drive-up COVID-19 testing locations will utilize self-swab nasal tests overseen by Rite Aid pharmacists. Testing eligibility is based on guidelines established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The testing will take place in each store’s parking lot. As part of the testing process, people must remain in their vehicles from the time they arrive and until they depart.
Testing will be available at no cost to eligible individuals who meet criteria established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Patients are required to provide government issued identification, be at least 18 years old and need to pre-register online at www.riteaid.com in order to schedule a time slot for testing.
