Joint Labor Committee Meeting Summary (August 29 and 30, 2002)

The Joint Labor, Health and Social Services Interim Committee met on August 29 and 30, 2002 in Cheyenne.  The Committee heard testimony from interested parties with respect to increasing health care costs in Wyoming, a funding request to increase federal funding for the HIV/AIDS Program and issues concerning federal initiatives on the Medicaid and Medicare Programs.  The Committee selected key issues that could be addressed to contain health care costs and delegated responsibilities to various members of the Committee and staff of agencies to develop proposed legislation in those areas for Committee consideration at the next meeting.

 

The Committee will meet again in October or November, at a site to be determined, to consider proposed legislation that was drafted per Committee direction.
