Lansing — Michigan House Speaker Matt Hall said Friday he's considering pursuing a new state commission or fee schedules to limit what hospitals can charge for their services, as part of a bid to lower health care costs.
The Kalamazoo County Republican made the comments during an appearance on WKAR's "Off The Record" overtime segment while discussing his caucus's priorities for the upcoming year. The speaker referenced the Michigan Public Service Commission, which currently gets to approve or alter rate increases proposed by gas and electric utilities that have monopolies within their service territories.
