Dear Health Care Partners,
We want to be sure you are all aware of an upcoming meeting for Washington health care professionals who are interested in learning more about Long COVID guidance and participating in discussions with peers. The Washington Chapter of the American College of Physicians (ACP) hosts monthly Long COVID interest group meetings and welcomes all health care providers who would like to participate.
The group's next meeting is on January 8 from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. and will feature a conversation between Dr. Hector Bonilla, Co-Director of the Stanford Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome Clinic, and Dr. Anita Chopra, Physician and Clinical Assistant Professor at the UW Medicine Post COVID Clinic. You can register here for the call and send questions to Nicholas Franko at UW's Department of Family Medicine.

Additionally, we would like to correct information from the December 17 POP newsletter. We have learned that support for DOH's testing kiosk program has been extended through March 31, 2025.
Locations with kiosks can continue using them after March, but will have to submit a letter of interest, sign a contract with the kiosk distributor, and finance the kiosk with their organization’s own funding.
Contact DOH Community Testing Supervisor Kristi Allen with any questions about the kiosk program.

We wish each of you a wonderful and safe holiday season and look forward to our continued partnership in the coming year.
