Covid-19 Resources for Physicians and Patients
The following guidance is drawn primarily from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) resources for health care professionals on Covid-19. Additional information is provided based on resources from the American Medical Association, MedChi, the Maryland Department of Health (MDH), and the Baltimore County Department of Health and Human Services. We recommend always referring to both MDH and CDC guidance for the most recent information. We have resources for your business from the Small Business Development Center and the Small Business Administration. Here is our Covid-19 resource page for physicians and patients.
Covid-19 Economic Resources
4/16/20 The small business rescue fund set up by Congress has exhausted its $350 billion funding capacity, as U.S. lawmakers remained in a stalemate over how to allocate more money.
Without additional funding, banks and the Small Business Administration will be unable to approve more of the “Paycheck Protection Program” loans designed to avert layoffs during the coronavirus pandemic, which can be forgiven if businesses agree to maintain their payrolls.
Lawmakers are continuing to negotiate how to replenish the funds but an imminent deal isn’t expected.
Next week, starting on Monday, April 20, the Mainstreet Lending Program will be presented from the federal government as the PPP and BSA EIDL two programs have disbursed their funds. Here is our current COVID-19 Economic Resources page.
The BCMA continues to work with MedChi, and its components, as well as the county and state, to pool our resources and keep physicians informed regarding the rapidly changing situation with the corona virus. We thank the Montgomery County Medical Association (MCMS) for making their programs available to all physicians.
This webinar event series, which is typically offered exclusively to MCMS physician members and their practice staff, has been opened to all physicians and practice staff during this public health crisis at no cost.
