Meredith, it most likely will not be heard in the two-day session. Time is too short, and there are lots of competing requests.

Also, we have it on good authority that the existence of a compact is only a small (tiny) part of the scoring criteria for the rural hospital grants. We should work on getting them heard and passed in the regular 30-day session. SJC should be a major target.

We need to get Sens. Cervantes, Duhigg, and Wirth on board with the interstate health care compacts in the Special Session, even if it only goes for 2 days. Sen. Munoz, SFC Chair, sees the math and knows that millions in federal funding for rural health care services are desperately needed.
