We will be available between the hours of 8:30 am – 4:30 pm Monday through Friday to confirm receipt of your records and answer any questions you may have.

CORONAVIRUS 2020
SUNY Broome is monitoring the Coronavirus outbreak carefully, working with various agencies to ensure the safety of our campus community. The Broome County Health Department is the lead local agency, while the Centers for Disease Control is the managing agency for the United States. These two agencies will provide the best and most current information on the virus nationally and locally.
Additional information about public health guidelines related to the virus can be found online:
- SUNY Coronavirus Information and Updates
- World Health Organization (WHO) information about Coronavirus
- US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Situation Summary
- Broome County Health Department
Communications to campus about coronavirus can be found on the SUNY Broome website.
Our local health care agencies have developed a screening questionnaire based on CDC guidelines to help you determine the appropriate level of care for you. By visiting the UHS Virtual Walk-In and completing the screening process, you will receive a recommendation and Coronavirus education/information free of charge. If the screening recommends that you seek further medical evaluation, you can continue to a Virtual Walk-In medical visit.
