Notice to Patients
AFS receives funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and has Federal Public Health Service (PHS) deemed status with respect to certain health or health-related claims, including medical malpractice claims, for itself and its covered individuals. This means AFS’ healthcare programs and its providers are covered under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA).
