HHS Renews COVID-19
Public Health Emergency for 7th Time
|
The COVID-19 public health emergency was extended on October 18 by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for at least another 90 days. The agency first declared the pandemic a public health emergency on January 31, 2020, and has since renewed it continuously.
What does this mean for you and your certification? If you’re due to certify or recertify, this requirement will be waived by the Center for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS) during this period. For more details on the waiver and its impact on your dialysis certification, read the NNCC FAQs Regarding CMS Waiver and Certification Credentials.
