A longtime leader in healthcare improvement, we’re developing new ways to revolutionize the industry.
Premier applauds the bipartisan leadership of the House and Senate and the White House for taking bold action to enact theCoronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (H.R. 748). The bill provides a critical infusion of funding for the healthcare system to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. This emergency stimulus package will help re-ignite our economy and provide financial relief to struggling individuals and businesses and the many hospitals, health systems and physician practices fighting this deadly virus. Premier lauds the many bipartisan solutions included in this package, including the $100 billion in direct funding to the healthcare system to arrest the spread and care for COVID-19 patients, the Mitigating Emergency Drug Shortages (MEDS) Act and other provisions to address drug and medical device shortages, and improving care coordination for substance use disorder patients by allowing the sharing of medical records after initial consent.
