MI SB0993

Michigan enacts the Interstate Health Care Compact, allowing member states to regulate health care independently and suspend conflicting federal laws, rules, regulations, and orders within their borders.

Establishes an Interstate Advisory Health Care Commission composed of representatives appointed by member states (maximum 2 per state) to study health care regulation issues and make nonbinding recommendations.

Guarantees member states receive federal funding equal to their "member state current year funding level" (based on 2010 federal health care spending adjusted for population and inflation), with Michigan's preliminary base level set at $29,466,000,000.

Requires congressional consent to activate the compact; becomes effective upon adoption by at least 2 member states and congressional approval, with member states remaining liable for funding obligations of any federal laws they do not suspend.

Allows member states to withdraw with 6 months' notice to other states and permits amendments by unanimous agreement of member states, effective unless Congress disapproves within 1 year.
