BY Joseph R, Montante, M.D., County Commissioner, District #26
IN RE: PROPOSED REDUCTION OF HOSPITAL BEDS IN MICHIGAN
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, the Michigan State Legislature did enact Public Act 368, which includes
in Section 22 I54, provisions for reduction of hospital beds? and
WHEREAS, the formation of a plan to eliminate excess hospital capacity in this
region is an extremely complicated and difficult task; and
WHEREAS, certain criteria and standards used to evaluate hospitals and to determine bed
reduction responsibility have been found to be inadequate, inappropriate and unworkable; and
WHEREAS, inadequate provisions have been made for problems caused by implementation
of the plan for aiternative methods of care which may be needed by the community; and
WHEREAS, the above could lead to the potential threat to the health and welfare of
the population of southeastern Michigan,
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board at Commissioners
objects to the proposed decisions at the bed reduction plan of CHPC-SEM as not being in the
best interest of the population,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners supports any
effort toward the repeal of Section 22 154 at P.A. 368 by the legislature of the State of Mich igan
MR. CHAIRPERSON, we moved the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
