Updated Vaccine Mandate Template Policies and Procedures (SNF/AL)

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently released guidance enforcing its Interim Final Rule issued November 5, 2021, mandating the vaccine in health care settings in specific states. For more information on the guidance and states where it applies, please reference this recent blog post. 

To help members in the impacted states comply with the vaccine mandate, AHCA/NCAL has updated its template policies and procedures, available on their COVID-19 website under the Vaccines section which is near the bottom of the page. Additional resources to help encourage vaccine uptake, including new handouts on boosters, can also be found on the #getvaccinated website.
