UPMC begins sharing biometric screening results for its new employees with consent

Oct. 2023Important Notices
New employees complete a biometric screening as part of UPMC’s hiring process. During the biometric screening they have clinically appropriate titers and total cholesterol, triglyceride, and glucose levels drawn.

Effective September 2023, new UPMC employees may consent to share all preplacement-related lab work with their PCP. PCPs will receive results from Quest Quanum based on their preferred method on file with Quest. Providers without a method on file will receive results via fax.

Employees may consult with their PCP office regarding these test results. Additionally, UPMC Employee Health will offer any recommended vaccinations, health coaching, and other wellness-related services.
