Hill AFB is at Health Protection Condition ALPHA.

The HPCON changed because Davis and Weber Counties moved to low community transmission levels as calculated by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).  No surveillance testing is required in HPCON ALPHA.

To reduce the risk of catching or spreading illness, personnel should stay home if feeling sick, even if symptoms are mild. Do not go to work, school, or public places, and avoid public transportation. If symptoms are severe or you feel like you need medical care, contact a health care provider.

ALL patients and visitors entering the medical facility will be expected to wear a face mask or covering at all times. Patients who believe they have been exposed or are feeling sick with a fever, cough,  shortness of breath, sore throat, or body aches should speak with an appointment line operator before travelling to the clinic so that we can manage your care appropriately.

The 75th Medical Group is operational for medical appointments; however, some wellness appointments and preventive services will be pushed to a future date. Patrons will continue to utilize the Pharmacy/Dental main entrance as the single point of entry to keep our community and facility safe.  Please arrive to your appointments at least 15 minutes early and please be patient as we are screening all patients for signs of COVID-19 before they move through the medical group. 

As part of the screening we are checking for recent symptoms, travel history or a potential exposure.  Question 1: Have you had a fever with in the last 72 hours? Question 2: Have you travel outside of the state in the last 14 days? Question 3: Have you been exposed to a POSITIVE COVID-19 patient?

Answering yes to the questions on the screening form does not mean you will not receive care at the Medical Group.  It just means we need to have you speak with your healthcare team, to agree on a strategy going forward for your situation.  You will be directed to call 801-586-CARE (2273) and we will use one of the many different avenues available to us to meet your needs.  All of our provider teams are here to make sure you and your families still receive outstanding care even during these challenging times.

If before you even come to the Medical Group, you are experiencing symptoms of fever, cough or shortness of breath and are concerned that you may have been exposed to COVID-19, contact call 801-586-CARE (2273) before reporting to the Medical Group.  We will walk through the same process as if you came to our doors. You may complete the online Coronavirus Self-Checker to help you make decisions about seeking appropriate medical care via https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/symptoms-testing/symptoms.html.

If you are an active duty family that currently is receiving your primary care in the community and you have concerns please call the appointment line and we will see what options you have available.

This is a rapidly evolving situation and the MDG will continue to adjust accordingly.  We continue to partner with installation and local agencies to ensure the safety and welfare of our force and families.

As new COVID-19 mitigation measures are announced by the installation, the page at this link will periodically be updated.

*Call ahead before entering any medical clinic if you suspect you have COVID-19, to avoid contaminating the facility and possibly exposing others to the virus.

Although COVID-19 testing capability is increasing by the day, during these initial stages there are limited testing resources at the hospitals and other medical facilities surrounding our installation.  To truly get the best use out of the testing resources, there is a screening protocol required prior to testing. 

On our installation, screening is being carried out by the 75th Medical Group’s Public Health Flight.  Active duty, Reserve, civilian personnel, and family members can call the Occupational Medicine Clinic during normal duty hours (0730-1630) at 801-777-1155 to receive guidance.  When you call the above numbers, you’ll be evaluated for testing.  If you meet testing criteria, then a prescription for the COVID-19 test will be written and/or faxed on your behalf.

If you elect not to utilize the screening services on base, you still require screening and a prescription from a physician in order to be tested.  Patients must have a complete order from a physician for the outpatient test and the printed order must be available at the time of service.  Exercising the above options will protect you from going to higher risk areas, such as testing sites unnecessarily, increasing the possibility of exposure.  Please contact the appropriate agencies first and follow the guidance provided.
