Action Alert – Provide Funding to Hospitals and Health Systems as Part of Coronavirus Spending Package

Contact Your Senators, Representative and Urge Them to Provide $100 Billion in Funding to Hospitals and Health Systems as Part of Coronavirus Spending Package

Leaders from the Senate, House and Administration are working on proposals for a third spending package related to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). While legislative language has not been formally unveiled yet, a package is expected to come together very quickly.

Please contact your senators and representative today and ask them to allocate $100 billion to front line health care personnel and providers – including hospitals, health systems, physicians and nurses – and direct the federal agencies to begin to infuse funds immediately so that providers can afford to take the necessary steps to combat COVID-19.

See the letter sent today to congressional leaders by the AHA, American Medical Association and American Nurses Association.

More details on specific areas you should highlight for your senators and representative can be found here.
