COVID-19 Recovery: Medical Practice Planning Checklist

No matter what stage of reopening your part of the country has entered, the recovery phase of the COVID-19 pandemic for medical practices is a time to review practice operations and push for improvement. This can include a review of your strategic plan and finding performance gaps.

Future surges in COVID-19 cases, paired with the start of influenza season, likely will pose unique challenges beyond those faced in the initial spread of the coronavirus. To be prepared, remember to regularly check current CDC guidelines, as well as region/state-specific information — the prevalence of flu, strep and coronavirus will vary and may dictate how much you can do while remaining open.
