Answer:

Hospital Experiences Responding to the COVID-19

Pandemic: Results of a National Pulse Survey

March 23–27, 2020

Purpose of the Review

This review provides the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and other decision-makers (e.g., State

and local officials and other Federal agencies) with a national snapshot of hospitals’ challenges and needs in

responding to the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This is not a review of HHS response to the

COVID-19 pandemic. We have collected this information as an aid for HHS as it continues to lead efforts to

address the public health emergency and support hospitals and other first responders. In addition, hospitals

may find the information about each other’s strategies useful in their efforts to mitigate the challenges they are

facing.

The hospital input that we describe reflects their experiences and perspectives at a point in time—March 23–27,

2020. The pandemic is fast-moving, as are the efforts to address it. We recognize that HHS, Congress, and other

government entities across the Federal, State, local, and Tribal levels are taking substantial actions on a continual

basis to support hospitals in responding to COVID-19. HHS has already taken and continues to take actions

related to each of the challenges that hospitals identified in our survey, and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and

Economic Security (CARES) Act provides the basis for additional actions. We present this information for HHS’s

and other decision-makers’ consideration as they continue to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Key Takeaway

Hospitals reported that their most significant challenges centered on testing and caring for patients with known

or suspected COVID-19 and keeping staff safe. Hospitals also reported substantial challenges maintaining or

expanding their facilities’ capacity to treat patients with COVID-19. Hospitals described specific challenges,

mitigation strategies, and needs for assistance related to personal protective equipment (PPE), testing, staffing,

supplies and durable equipment; maintaining or expanding facility capacity; and financial concerns.

How OIG Did This Review

This information is based on brief telephone interviews (“pulse surveys”) conducted March 23–27, 2020, with

hospital administrators from 323 hospitals across 46 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, that were

part of our random sample. Our rate of contact was 85 percent. Interviews focused on three key questions:

1. What are your most difficult challenges in responding to COVID-19?

2. What strategies is your hospital using to address or mitigate these challenges?

3. How could government best support hospitals responding to COVID-19?

Respondent hospitals included Special Pathogen Centers, critical access hospitals, and a range of hospitals

nation-wide of various sizes and characteristics. At the time of our surveys, most hospitals reported they were

treating patients with confirmed or suspected COVID-19, but some were not currently treating any patients with

confirmed or suspected COVID-19. (See Methodology on pages 18–20 for additional information.)
