Two aspects of outpatient care needed to be considered: (1) how to change practice to minimize viral exposure of healthy patients and providers, and (2) how to utilize outpatient resources to off-load some of the inpatient burden of taking care of COVID-19 patients. To address the first point, a system should be implemented to screen all patients by phone for COVID-19-related symptoms and exposure prior to their presentation to perinatal units or outpatient offices. ► COVID-19 ► labor and delivery ► novel coronavirus ► psychosocial challenges ► universal testing Each institution should assign a designated COVID-19 provider. Patients who screen positive should immediately be given a mask, have their cell phone number recorded, and be escorted to a designated, isolated COVID-19 triage room.	./cache/cord-316987-3nhqx2qn.txt	./txt/cord-316987-3nhqx2qn.txt
