National Jewish Health welcomes patients and those visitors who accompany them without restriction. As a health care environment, masking is required in all patient-facing areas.
Pre-Admissions Screening
Masks are required in all patient-facing areas, including reception areas, waiting areas, clinics, on elevators, in the cafeteria and throughout any area that is accessed by patients.
Please bring your own cloth or surgical face mask to wear (cannot be a bandana or scarf). If you do not have a mask, one will be provided to you.
By being on campus, individuals are self-attesting that they do not have symptoms of COVID-19 and that they have not been recently diagnosed with COVID-19. Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe.
Patients with disabilities (which is defined by the ADA as a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a person who has a history or record of such an impairment, or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment) who require help with the provision of medical or behavioral health care, activities of daily living, speaking for the patient or keeping the patient safe, may have a designated assistance person.
Appointments: In-Person & Telehealth
We are committed to the care of our patients and are continuing appointments for both new patient and follow-up visits. To help you get the care you need seven days a week, we are now offering COVID-19 testing, COVID-19 treatment for adult and pediatric patients, as well as post-COVID treatment.

Most National Jewish Health providers now offer telehealth appointments via Zoom. Telehealth appointments are currently only for existing Colorado patients who do not require diagnostic testing and are unable to attend in person. Learn More
If you are traveling from out of state, please consider the CDC travel guidelines and the urgency of your appointments. More information for patients.
Please contact scheduling at 303.398.1355 (or toll free at 877.225.5654).
Social Distancing & Facilities
We’ve changed our waiting areas and other common areas to provide safe social distancing. Additional hand sanitizing-stations have been set up throughout the institution and we continually deep clean our lobby, waiting areas, furniture and equipment. We clean rooms before and after every patient visit.
We appreciate your cooperation in helping us keep you and all our patients and health care providers safe.
