Clinician Matching Network Continues to Need Health-care Workers

While the overwhelming need for qualified health-care providers on the front lines in New York has abated, the COVID-19 pandemic’s presence in other parts of the United States has increased, particularly in states that have re-opened public gathering places. The Navajo Nation, primarily in Arizona, is facing great need as this issue of Washington Watchline is being prepared. In its continuing effort to match health-care providers with systems in need during times of crisis, the American College of Chest Physicians (CHEST), the American Thoracic Society (ATS), and PA Consulting continue the Clinician Matching Network, a national-level clearinghouse to pair providers with locations in need. To participate, indicate a southwest, or specifically Navajo Nation, placement. Learn more and sign up today.
