Like almost everything in life, the good often comes with the bad. Taylor Swift songs come with an annoying fan base, milkshakes come with calories, and public health emergencies deliver reduced regulations, but they give the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services more power.
With the current debate over ending the public health emergency declared in response to COVID, it is worth looking at exactly what a public health emergency means. The debate is about exactly when to end the “emergency”: either now or in May . A few months might seem like an insignificant amount of time, but for the president, it means expanded power.
The regulatory rollback was largely possible because of the declaration of a healthcare emergency. Absent regulations during COVID, telehealth has blossomed and helped the country keep going while staying safe and healthy. It will be interesting to see if Democrats come out of this period of deregulation having learned the lessons the pandemic gave us or if they will return to supporting regulations and making it harder for innovators to increase access and decrease costs.
