Interim Protocol for the OMS Office

The Special Committee on Recovery and Response to the Pandemic (SCORRP) – with the support of AAOMS leadership – has developed a document intended to provide OMSs with appropriate protocols for returning to practice. Each OMS must use his or her own professional judgment in line with current government guidance and abide by local and state laws/regulations. Scope of practice, patient demographics, staffing, office facility and geographic location may influence individual decision-making, but all OMSs must consider each measure and make appropriate decisions that will protect themselves, their staff and their patients.
