President Biden Signs Resolution Officially Ending COVID Emergency

After nearly three years, the COVID-19 pandemic is now officially in the rear-view mirror of the country.  While originally showing hesitancy to ending the national emergency citing possible “chaos and uncertainty” in the health care industry, President Biden on April 10^th signed Republican-led legislation ending the COVID-19 state of national emergency.  The legislation passed 229-197 in the House, and 68-23 in the Senate.  In response to the ending of the emergency, the US Department of Health and Human Services, the US Department of Labor, and the US Treasury released a Guidance and Frequently Asked Questions document to help employers and individuals of the future of COVID response.
