Surgeries and Procedures During COVID-19
Hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers and clinics, including dental, veterinary, mobile, and other facilities performing surgeries and procedures are encouraged to consider MDH guidance to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 among staff and patients, and to preserve resources (such as staffing, bed space, personal protective equipment, and ventilators) needed to care for patients with COVID-19. In addition, health care facilities must continue to follow all applicable federal and state regulatory standards, some of which may address measures to prevent infection.
