  In the event of an influenza pandemic, national and regional health insurers will have several key responsibilities: protecting their employees’ health and safety, providing coverage and related services to their enrollees, and coordinating access to care through the provider community. Pandemic influenza planning is critical and will help limit the negative impact on our economy and society. To assist health insurers in their efforts, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have developed the following checklist. It identifies important, targeted activities health insurers can do now to prepare for a pandemic. This checklist is organized according to business-related, employee- related, and communications-related activities. Please consider incorporating these pandemic-specific elements into your current all-hazards business continuity plan. Please access http://www.pandemicflu.gov/ for additional information, including planning assumptions and tools and guidelines for health-care planning.
