While the risk of acquiring COVID-19 in hospitals in the United States and Canada is still very low, Henry Ford Health System and our partners are reallocating resources to best deal with and control the spread of this virus. We have reached out to transplant recipients with upcoming appointments to ensure their continued care whether through rescheduling, telemedicine or keeping their scheduled appointment. If you have not heard from us regarding an upcoming appointment, contact your transplant coordinator for instructions. Please enroll in MyChart, if you haven’t already. MyChart allows you to continue some appointments visits through video visits, eliminating the risks associated with visiting a hospital or clinic. Enroll in MyChart online or call 800-HenryFord and say “MyChart.”
