Free Corona Testing for At-Risk Patients in Vienna Practices
"Timely treatment can prevent severe disease progression and reduce the risk of Long Covid," explained Naghme Kamaleyan-Schmied, Vice President and Chairwoman of the panel of general practitioners of the Chamber for Physicians in Vienna. "We are pleased that a solution has been found together with the ÖGK that provides patients with security. Especially in a large city like Vienna, with many vulnerable groups and a rapid spread of diseases, this step is particularly important."
The Vienna Regional Committee Chairpersons of the ÖGK, Agnes Streissler-Führer and Martin Heimhilcher, also emphasized: "For us, it is important to ensure the best possible care and security for our insured individuals - especially for high-risk groups, the free Covid testing is of great importance."
