Show Notes

Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont proposes shifting the Office of Health Strategys functions into the Department of Public Health, including a new panel for certificate of need approvals. This move, part of his budget, faces opposition from hospital leaders who argue it will increase red tape without addressing staffing or financial issues. Public Health Commissioner Andrea Barton Reeves supports the bill, while the state Healthcare Advocate advocates for more consumer voices in decisions. The proposal will be discussed at a public hearing on Wednesday.
