Covid Testing Clinic to close January 1st 2023

Benalla Health’s COVID Testing Clinic will close permanently as of January 1st 2023.

The testing site operated by Benalla Health’s Urgent Care Centre will finish operations as demand for COVID-19 PCR testing has decreased and Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) usage has increased.

Should you have any concerns about your RAT test or your symptoms please contact your local GP or present to the Urgent Care Centre. You can contact the Urgent Care Centre on (03) 5761 4226.
