Avita Health System is rolling out its reduced-cost blood screenings throughout October 2024. This initiative allows community members to access essential blood tests at discounted rates to promote proactive healthcare management. For the entire month, participants can purchase vouchers for these screenings at various Avita locations.

From October 1-31 vouchers for the screenings can be bought at:

  • Galion Hospital cashier’s office
  • Bucyrus Hospital and Ontario Hospital registration desks

Vouchers cannot be purchased at the Ontario South Campus. Participants should ensure they purchase vouchers before redeeming them at the lab for testing.
