MI HB5487

Removes air ambulance services from the list of covered clinical services requiring a certificate of need approval under Michigan's Public Health Code.

Revises definition of "addition" to a health facility by clarifying that it includes patient rooms, beds, ancillary service areas, procedure rooms, surgical operating rooms, and therapy rooms.

Makes grammatical and technical corrections to section 22203 by changing plural references to singular (e.g., "services" to "service") for consistency in defining covered clinical services.

Maintains existing definitions and thresholds for capital expenditures ($2,500,000.00 or more) and certificate of need requirements for other covered clinical services including neonatal intensive care, open heart surgery, organ transplantation, and diagnostic imaging services.
