SB 321 Medical care facilities certificate of public need.
Introduced by: Walter A. Stosch | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Medical care facilities certificate of public need. Removes the purchase of computed tomographic (CT) scanners and the introduction, regardless of the site, of new computed tomographic scanning services from the requirement to obtain a certificate of public need. In recent years, improvements in computed tomographic scanning technology have made it possible for physicians to view various organs and organ systems in great detail, thus providing a more efficient diagnostic tool and eliminating the need for other more invasive techniques or those procedures requiring exposure to radiation or injection of tracers.
