Berks County Chosen to Lead US COVID-19 Home to Treat Program

Berks County, PA has been selected by The National Institutes of Health, in collaboration with the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, as the nationwide pilot site for a Home Test to Treat program.

This program is an entirely virtual community health intervention that will provide free COVID-19 health services: at-home rapid tests, telehealth sessions and at-home treatment for medically appropriate participants.

It is hoped the Home Test to Treat will promote equitable solutions and help to identify best practices that may save lives in this and future pandemics. The research team will identify and implement improvements that leave us in a much better position to respond to specific needs at the local, state and federal levels.

Interested persons in Berks County can join the program to access the available benefits at any time by going to www.test2treat.org and reviewing the study consent and enrolling. It is hoped that between 8,000 and 10,000 individuals will enroll in Berks County.
