Since that time, thousands of organizations around the country have taken steps to require their employees to be vaccinated. On November 21, the Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced new regulations requiring vaccination, and in the case of the OSHA rule, vaccination or mandatory weekly testing. Notably, CMS’s vaccination mandate applies to 15 types of providers and suppliers, including home health and hospice agencies, and in total covers more than 17 million health care workers and approximately 76,000 health care facilities. After extensive litigation, the OSHA rule has been enjoined nationwide by the US Supreme Court, and all of the injunctions affecting the CMS rule have been terminated.
