“Workers at home health agencies receiving Medicare, Medicaid must get vaccinated: CMS”

“Workers at home health agencies receiving Medicare, Medicaid must get vaccinated: CMS,” by Diane Eastabrook, McKnight’s Senior Living 

 

 

Quote:

“The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services announced Thursday emergency regulations requiring vaccinations for workers at nursing homes would be expanded to include hospitals, ambulatory surgical facilities, home health facilities and a number of other healthcare providers as the delta variant of the COVID-19 virus spreads across the U.S.”

 

 

LTC Comment, Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform:

Then today the Wall Street Journal reported “All employers with 100 or more employees would have to require that their workers be vaccinated or undergo at least weekly Covid-19 testing under a new plan announced by President Biden to curb the spread of the pandemic.” Government response to the pandemic is raising scary questions about individual freedom.
