America’s Essential Hospitals is closely monitoring the executive orders signed by President Trump since he took office on Jan. 20, as well as related lawsuits challenging the executive orders and other agency actions. The association will continue to provide biweekly lawsuit updates and real-time summaries of executive orders and related agency actions.
Since the association’s last update, on Nov. 11, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) indicated its intent to resume sharing Medicaid data with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The action was previously halted by a federal district court in California, but the preliminary injunction may be lifted on Dec. 9 if the court finds that HHS’ federal register notice and related guidance meet certain legal parameters.
Members can access the association’s latest review of the lawsuits against the Trump administration’s actions and a full summary of executive orders from Jan. 20 through Aug. 19.
