The COVID-19 pandemic has created an unprecedented economic crisis and significant impact to the healthcare system of the United States. The tasks facing leaders and policymakers are enormous. There is an urgent need for new, clear, collaborative, and transparent interventions based on evidence and science. The purpose of this article is to describe and evaluate the economic impact of the pandemic to the health care system, and the policy and recommendations that will help in the recovery process. A discussion of the economic impact to healthcare will be presented first including the interventions that successfully worked and are currently still appropriate. New and innovative interventions and recommendations are explored and suggested. It is made clear that the challenges involved in combating the situation are global and requires multisectoral, public and private cooperation across communities, and the nation if they are to be dealt with effectively. |
