What you need for Subscribe to the DPH Non-Acute Care Hospital Communications Listserv
In an effort to streamline communication between the Department of Public Health (DPH) and Massachusetts-licensed non-acute care hospitals, the Bureau of Health Care Safety and Quality uses an electronic listserv as the primary method to transmit circular letters and other significant or time sensitive notifications.
Each hospital must subscribe to the listserv and choose 2 individuals to receive communications:
- The hospital administrator
- A backup clinical manager
Once you subscribe, your email will automatically be added to the distribution list. All communication from the non-acute care hospital listserv will be sent from donotreply@state.ma.us.
Circular letters will also continue to be posted online.
