COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (PHE) Renewal
On January 7, 2021, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Alex Azar renewed the COVID-19 PHE, effective beginning January 21, 2021. This renewal of the PHE will be in effect until April 21, 2021. As previously reported, the PHE provides flexibility for HHS to waive regulations, and these waivers and other information related to the PHE can be found on AANP’s COVID-19 Policy and Practice Updates page.https://www.aanp.org/advocacy/advocacy-resource/coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19-policy-updates?utm_source=Real_Magnet&utm_medium=GAU&utm_content=1-11&utm_campaign=FGA_COVID
