OHCP is pleased to share a meaningful update about UConn Health’s management of the upcoming expiration of the federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (PHE), expiring May 11, 2023.

During the PHE, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) eased certain regulatory requirements for healthcare providers and institutions to better deliver healthcare in unprecedented circumstances. Over the next several months, UConn Health anticipates adjusting the policies and regulatory flexibilities utilized during the PHE in accordance with applicable requirements and guidance.

With the PHE now ending, UConn Health organized a multidisciplinary workgroup to develop a roadmap for the transition and provide additional communications on updates and further guidance. For a helpful summary of the topics requiring changes, and for which you can expect more information to come, please refer to the UConn Health COVID-19 PHE Roadmap.

We appreciate the hard work and sacrifices made during the pandemic, and we look forward to working together during this transition.
