Approval memo

5/9/2003
Governor
Result: Approved
I have reviewed the proposed regulation on a preliminary basis. I have some concern about the fiscal impact of these regulatory changes, which I expect the board and the Department of Planning and Budget to address more fully. I also expect the board to closely examine the benefits and consequences of eliminating the requirement that providers accept all patients regardless of ability to pay. While I reserve the right to take action during the final adoption period, in accordance with the Administrative Process Act, I have no objection to this regulation other than the issues stated above, based on the information and public comment currently available.
