With Excess National Supply, Exchanges Will Allow U.S. Hospitals to Continue Meeting Ventilator Demand
April 25, 2020
Washington, D.C. – During the COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic, the Federal Government has worked tirelessly to “bend the curve” and prevent healthcare utilization from exceeding the healthcare system’s capacity. Given ventilators’ life-saving role, it is important that demand stay below supply so that no person who is in need of a ventilator is denied one.
Federal policy has achieved this objective so far, and the Trump Administration recently announced the voluntary Dynamic Ventilator Reserve to ensure that patients everywhere can continue accessing ventilators.
