On November 2, 2023, Governor Hochul's Commission on the Future of Health Care held their first meeting in New York City, fulfilling a commitment made in the Governor's 2023 State of the State.
Building on Governor Hochul’s historic $20 billion multi-year investments in New York’s health care system, the advisory council will work to build a comprehensive and evidence-based strategy for the state’s health care system to ensure it can best serve the needs of New Yorkers today, and in coming years.
The Commission will offer formal recommendations submitted annually and released publicly. The Commission will focus on the full continuum of care, including physical and behavioral health, and recommendations will span policy, regulation, funding, and other strategies to drive long-term transformation within the health care system.
The Commission includes some of the foremost practitioners and policy experts in New York and nationally, with experience in health care delivery, insurance, long-term care, workforce, health equity, innovation, and beyond.
