Pursuant to MCL 333.22215, the CON Commission may form a Standard Advisory Committee (SAC) for the purpose to advise the Commission regarding development of proposed CON Review Standards. Or they may determine other ways to get input in the form of professional and technical assistance or advice. Often in these circumstances, the CON Commission will decide to form a workgroup to address specific issues in any one of the CON Review Standards.
SACs are composed of a two-thirds majority of experts in the subject matter, representatives of health care provider organizations concerned with licensed health facilities or licensed health professions, and representatives of organizations concerned with health care consumers, and the purchasers and payers of health care services. An individual cannot serve on more than two SACs in any two-year period and cannot be a registered lobbyist under 1978 PA 472, MCL 4.411 to 4.431.
The workgroups are informal, meaning that the workgroup proceedings are open to the public and anyone can participate in the discussion. A workgroup chair is selected and a detailed workgroup charge is created by the CON Commission, often these tasks are delegated to the Chair of the CON Commission. The workgroup chair will provide the CON Commission with updates on the workgroup's progress and will present the final recommendations back to the CON Commission.
For current SACs and Informal Workgroups, please visit our current Standard Advisory Committees (SAC) or Informal Workgroups pages.
