HEALTH AND SAFETY PROTOCOLS

The 340B Coalition is committed to ensuring a safe return to meetings. The health and safety of our attendees, exhibitors, vendors, and staff is of upmost importance. All attendees must follow the state of California's guidance for attending indoor mega-events. Here are some important reminders that will assist in keeping everyone attending as safe as possible.

  • If you are feeling sick prior to the meeting, please do not attend
  • Proof of vaccination OR negative COVID-19 test taken within one day of the first day of arrival at the event if it's a rapid antigen test or within two days for a PCR test is required to attend the event. (Local testing sites) Learn more about our important entry requirements.
  • Be prepared when you check in at registration by having your “green” Health Pass by Clear and government issued identification available to show conference staff.
  • Masks must be worn at all times (regardless of vaccination status), unless actively eating or drinking.  This includes in sessions, the exhibit hall, and public spaces like hallways and elevators.
  • No eating or drinking in session rooms (unless it is a breakfast or lunch meeting).
  • No eating or drinking in common areas or public spaces (i.e. registration areas, hotel foyers, hallways, public lounge areas).
  • Check in with the Clear representative or Coalition staff at any time, if you have any questions concerning conference health and safety protocol or procedures.
  • There will be hand sanitizer stations throughout the hotel, in your welcome bag and at registration.
  • Please use the wrist bands included in your welcome bag, which are designed to assist other attendees with knowing your comfort level as you are greeted.
 Green, yellow, red wristbands to show others how comfortable you with interacting
