Please repeal COPN rules.
 

Please repeal COPN rules. Doing so will make health care costs decrease. This is especially true in rural areas where patients are forced to get specialty care/surgery in the hospital setting for care that could be more efficiently and more economically provided in facilities like outpatient surgery centers, as one example. Thank you.
