Shapp plan to regulate health care costs faces strong opposition
The Shapp administration advocates a statewide reform to control costs and regulate providers. A Health Care Policy Board and an Office of the Health Advocate would oversee certification of need, licensing, uniform accounting, and rate regulation. Local planning agencies would vet certificates of need with a four year term health advocate representing consumers. Three year licenses and formal hearings for state reversals. Rates for nursing homes and insurers begin 1976 with hospitals and other facilities by 1977.
