Elective Medical Procedures Guidance

ASTHO created a Elective Medical Procedures Guidance layer using Esri’s ArcGIS online mapping tool. Data was sourced from health agency websites, executive orders and guidance documents. The layer displays information on state/territorial level guidance on elective medical procedures from health agency websites. Please note, local authorities may also issue declarations or executive orders that are more restrictive in nature. This information is not included on this layer. Information is assessed regularly by ASTHO staff for relevance to state/territorial health officials’ priorities in their COVID-19 response. Updates to the map will occur periodically.
