To support Fellows in delivering safe, high-quality care during the COVID-19 pandemic, the ACS has developed online resources for surgeons and surgical practices facing the impact of the national public health emergency (PHE). For more information about the College’s resources related to COVID-19 and practice management, contact Lauren Foe, ACS Division of Advocacy and Health Policy, at lfoe@facs.org.
The use of telehealth and other virtual services can reduce exposure to COVID-19 and ensure continuity of care during the PHE. Here are resources to help surgeons understand and integrate virtual services into their practices while enhancing their ability to safely care for patients remotely.
