Establishing a committee on city healthcare services.

A Local Law to amend the New York city charter, in relation to establishing a committee on city healthcare services

This bill would create Committee on City Healthcare Services. It would consist of representatives from City agencies that directly provide, or contract with outside entities to provide, healthcare services, as well as from the Council and stakeholders from around the City. The Committee would be charged with issuing a biennial report that includes, among other things, recommendations for how to most effectively utilize City resources to provide healthcare services and improve coordination among agencies in providing services. The Committee would be required to engage with a variety of stakeholders in formulating these recommendations as well as the other aspects of the report.
