OSHA ISSUES COVID-19 EMERGENCY TEMPORARY STANDARD FOR HEALTHCARE
Although it may feel like COVID is in our rear-view mirror, it still poses risk to health care workers.
OSHA has determined that employee exposure to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, presents a grave danger to workers in healthcare settings where people with COVID-19 are reasonably expected to be present and has issued an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) to address the hazard.
The ETS requires employers to help protect healthcare workers in settings where suspected or confirmed COVID-19 patients are treated. Download the ETS summary which has a link to the full text 29 CFR 1910.502.
Go to the ETS webpage or to the FAQs.

Finally a big reminder. We still have a lot of cost reports to do and most of our clients still do not have their information to us. Please get this information to us as soon as possible. Dani and I both had vacations planned during the summer before the deadline was extended. We need the information no later than July 7th to ensure your cost report is filed timely. The filing deadline is August 2nd, but we will be on vacation starting on July 24, 2021. Please get this information to us as soon as possible, so we file your report timely and avoid getting your payments suspended for non-filing of the cost report.
