WSHA celebrates strong legislative session for policy issues

Thursday, March 12, marks the final day of the state legislative session, and WSHA is pleased that this year’s “short” 60-day session was positive. Nearly all our major priorities passed, and many of the changes we requested in other bills have been adopted. An analysis of the Legislature’s final budget — and the final update of this session’s bills — was released in this week’s Inside Olympia. Overall, the budget is positive for health care. WSHA is also pleased the Legislature swiftly passed funding to respond to the coronavirus. Read the latest from Inside Olympia.
