Bill Horton, a partner in the Birmingham office and co-leader of the Healthcare Industry Team, was quoted in the article “AHA Asks for COVID-19 Public Health Emergency to be Extended,” published by Healthcare Dive. The American Hospital Association requested the Department of Health and Human Services to extend the COVID-19 public health emergency. Bill explains that the request may be reasonable and indicates that hospitals seek to continue benefiting from emergency regulatory relief given the uncertain future of the pandemic.
