The New York State Dept. of Health has a number of very important boards, committees, and councils which meet on a regular basis to discuss and determine the number of doctors, hospitals, and medical equipment available to the citizens of the Empire State and what all this will cost. Many of those meetings are now available via live webcasts.
Among those whose meetings will be webcast are the State Hospital Review and Planning Council, arguably the state's most important decision-making body on health care issues.
Meetings from January 2008 onward are being archived for ready reference.
