Dear PAGNY Providers,

We are pleased to inform you that our partner NYC Health + Hospitals is now offering SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) antibody testing to PAGNY employees. PAGNY is happy to have been working with H+H on this opportunity.

While you continue the fight against this pandemic, we are hopeful that these antibody tests may be of help. Testing of the workforce is a priority and our partners at NYC H+H now have the ability to perform antibody testing using the Abbott Architect/test system. This is an initial step in providing antibody testing in the health care system. There is still much to learn about SARS-CoV-2 and the antibody tests.

PAGNY employees who wish to be tested can schedule an appointment by calling 646 614-4001.

Our partners at H+H will be rolling-out the test weekly to the following groups of employees:

  • Week 1: Employees working in 'hot zones' (e.g. EDs, ICUs, L&D))
  • Week 2: Employees working on Medical/Surgical units
  • Week 3: All other employees with patient contact

*Includes employees of all types working in above areas, including, but not limited to: EVS, nursing, provider, consultants, administrative and finance*

If you have symptoms of the virus now, you can get the SARS-CoV-2 PCR test (aka the 'nasal swab test') to see if you are infected by calling the Employee COVID-19 Testing Hotline at 646 614-4001 to schedule an appointment.
