Update to SAMHS COVID-19 Screening Efforts

By 59th Medical Wing Public Affairs

In an effort to preserve clinic access and inpatient staffing while maximally supporting FEMA, the San Antonio Military Health System is centralizing COVID-19 screening to a single location at Brooke Army Medical Center located on Joint Base San Antonio - Ft Sam Houston.

Effective noon on Friday, February 12, the sites at Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center and Randolph Clinic will close after 11 months in operation, and BAMC will become the sole screening and testing location within SAMHS.

BAMC’s site, located in the first floor of the parking garage, is open Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to noon. As a reminder, the site will be closed Monday, February 15, for the Presidents Day holiday, but will resume normal operations on Tuesday, February 16.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and support as we continue to modify services based on current conditions.

Please continue to do your part to slow the spread of this virus, remember the 3 Ws: wear a face covering, wash your hands or hand sanitize regularly and watch your physical distancing.  That is the best way to preserve the health of our patients and staff.

Don’t forget to keep your family’s information up to date in DEERS!
