Mark Neuberger Discusses Supreme Court Ruling on Vaccine Mandate for Health Care Workers

Foley & Lardner LLP Labor & Employment Of Counsel Mark Neuberger was quoted in The New York Times article, “Hospitals Confront the Fallout From Supreme Court Ruling on Vaccine Mandate,” about potential staff shortages in health care systems and opposing state and federal policies after the Supreme Court’s decision requiring health care workers to be vaccinated.

The Supreme Court ruling covered two dozen states that had been the subject of federal injunctions that prohibited the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) from imposing a mandate. Now, if companies in these states do not comply with the CMS mandate, their ability to provide care to patients in under the Medicare and Medicaid programs is in jeopardy. “Why risk losing Medicare, which is your life line?” said Neuberger.
