This will, for example, apply to everyone who may be in need of an interpreter. Many will still receive consultations by phone and/or digitally.

From June 2, 2020, the notice of the appointment for blood tests and consultation will be sent by digital mail via Digipost /Altinn. If Digipost is not opened after one or two reminders, the letter will automatically be sent by ordinary mail. The outpatient clinic for infectious diseases does not have the option to stop this as this is done automatically via Posten, if Digipost is not opened. If you want to avoid getting a letter in the mail, you can get the next appointment directly when you are at the outpatient clinic. Until 2 June, the letters will be sent by ordinary mail.

If the outpatient clinic for infectious diseases has to postpone or change appointments at short notice, they will still call, but no longer send SMS to those who do not answer the phone – only send electronic letters. These letters must therefore be opened quickly.

Although we have now gained control of the corona virus in Norway, changes can still occur quickly. Keep up to date on the outpatient clinic for infectious diseases website at Oslo University Hospital Ullevål.

SMS reminder

SMS reminder is sent 4 days before blood tests and 4 days before the consultation.
