Curi Adds New Frequently Asked Questions to COVID-19 Resource Center
The Curi team has added two new FAQs to our COVID-19 Practice Command Center: “Is it ok for pediatric practices to perform COVID-19 testing on their patients’ parents?” and “Are there any concerns practices need to be aware of related to testing patients for COVID-19?”
All Curi recommendations are based on current CDC criteria at the time of publication. CDC guidance for SARS-CoV-2 infection may, or may not, be adopted by state and local health departments to respond to rapidly changing local circumstances. Providers should always check with their local health department to see if the CDC’s guidance on any given topic has been modified (particularly if more restrictive) from the CDC’s recommended guidelines. Follow this link https://www.cdc.gov/publichealthgateway/healthdirectories/index.html for contact information to your state/local health department. If local recommendations vary from those of the CDC, and you are unsure what recommendations to follow, then it is safer to follow the more restrictive guidelines/recommendations.
