The COVID-19 Healthcare Workforce Toolkit builds on the steps
CMS has taken to ensure healthcare facilities are fully staffed and
equipped to treat COVID-19 patients as efficiently as possible. This
toolkit provides helpful information on funding flexibilities, liability
protections, and workforce training. For example, state and local
communities will be able to see how and where workforce waivers can be
applied, based on information from other areas.
The toolkit also provides up-to-date best practices so that
healthcare decision makers have a go-to resource where they can see what
has been implemented in the field, and how it’s working. The online toolkit
includes an assistance center, information exchange of case studies, and
additional peer-to-peer communications that can be used to help communities
determine the best way to battle COVID-19 based on their unique needs.
The toolkit is housed on ASPR's Technical Resources,
Assistance Center, and Information Exchange (TRACIE). TRACIE is a
healthcare emergency preparedness gateway that ensures all stakeholders at
all levels have access to information and resources to improve
preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation efforts.
