The previously communicated cancellation of all elective procedures at Augusta University Health, including Augusta University Medical Center, Augusta University Medical Associates, Children’s Hospital of Georgia and Surgery Center of Columbia County, has been extended to April 20.

Urgent and emergency procedures will proceed as clinically appropriate. These cancellations are intended to reduce the potential for exposure to COVID-19 and to keep our patients and caregivers safe. We will continue to monitor and evaluate this situation.
