@CTB23 posted:I have my pouchoscopy scheduled for August 13 and was told that I needed a negative Covid test. I assume I can get it at my local test site, since I live about 45 mins. away from Yale. Of course, I could always have it at Yale, and then go for a famous New Haven pizza!
CTB23,
The message I got from Yale on this is that if you schedule a Covid test through them, it must scheduled not sooner than 10 days before the pouchscopy and must be obtained 3 days or less before. Therefore if you schedule with them, it cannot be done before August 3. And you will need to schedule on August 10, 11 or 12 for an August 13 scope.
