Here are the Washington hospitals still requiring masks after the mandate expires today

Starting Monday the Washington State Health Department will no longer require face masks inside healthcare facilities.

The statewide mask order applied to anyone five years or older who was a patient or visitor to a healthcare facility.

UW Medicine campuses are among several healthcare systems and hospitals that signed a group statement to continue requiring masks at their discretion. The statement was coordinated by the NW Healthcare Resource Network.

A few of the other hospitals that will continue to require masks in some capacity include EvergreenHealth, Swedish Medical, Overlake Medical, Kaiser Permanente Washington and Seattle Children’s.

I would think insurance companies would want that, too. I'm not sure where my state stands, but Kaiser still requires them.
