Becker's Healthcare has reported that house Democrats on May 12 unveiled a $3 trillion COVID-19 relief package that includes aid for hospitals and funds to expand access to COVID-19 testing.
The 1,815-page bill provides nearly $1 trillion for state and local governments, $100 billion in grants for hospitals and medical providers, and $75 billion for COVID-19 testing, contact tracing and other measures to monitor the spread of the virus, according to The Hill. It also calls for a comprehensive COVID-19 testing strategy that requires HHS to outline testing levels necessary to control the virus, according to CNBC.
