Seth Cohn", "committee": "Constitutional Review and Statutory Recodification", "text": "A compact is a constitutionally permitted method for states to cooperate together (Article I, Section 10), with the full permission and direct authorization of congress making the compact into federal law. This particular compact requires that the states pledge to \"improve health care policy,\" taking the \"primary responsibility to regulate health care\", and in return, congress will grant explicit permission to the states to experiment with different approaches to comprehensive health care programs and to fund those programs with federal money. Congress would also authorize the suspension of federal health care regulations by the state legislature if the regulations are in conflict with the state's new improvements. This compact recognizes that New Hampshire's health care needs are best solved by those here in New Hampshire, and not by Washington DC regulators trying to force all 50 states into the same one-size-fits-all solution. Understanding that this bill simply asks the United States Congress to vote to give New Hampshire and other states that have passed this compact language an option in crafting their own innovative health care programs - or accepting existing and new federal healthcare proposals - and that since congressional approval controls the entire process, the majority felt that there were no constitutional issues.

A healthcare compact moves the responsibilities and authority for regulating healthcare from the federal government to the states. Medicare has an unfunded liability of between $38-43 trillion, and we should take a long look at any program that would potentially shift NH's portion of that burden to state taxpayers. The committee was also concerned that there will be an unknown cost to join the compact and, even more importantly, what health insurance it will actually cover: Medicare, Medicaid, or individuals and employer based group insurance? The legislation, however, does allow New Hampshire to join after the commission has been enacted by congress and formed. After hearing much testimony about pros and cons on health care compacts, the committee concurs with the sponsor, that further study with a study committee would be appropriate. The committee is directed to report by Nov.1."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep. Andrew J Manuse", "committee": "Commerce and Consumer Affairs", "text": "This bill was sent to Commerce as a second committee. The minority of Commerce agrees with the statement: \"This compact recognizes that New Hampshire's health care needs are best solved by those here in New Hampshire, and not by Washington DC regulators trying to force all 50 states into the same one-size-fits-all solution.\" The minority also thinks that the Commerce Committee has not articulated sufficient rationale to study the idea of a Health Care Compact further. A compact is a constitutionally permitted contract among two or more states that must be ratified by Congress to take effect, according to Article 1, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution. Due to the legal nature of a compact, the Commerce Committee or a study committee cannot recommend amended language for HB 1560 or the compact can not legally take effect. Practically speaking, the study committee is just an option to talk more about the idea of a compact and then make a recommendation whether to pass this bill in the exact same form that you see it in today. Such a conversation is unneeded and wasteful of valuable state resources for one very clear reason: Even if we do pass this compact, and even if two or more other states pass this compact in the exact same form, and even if Congress passes this compact in the exact same form, the only thing that will come from it is that the New Hampshire Legislature will have been legally granted permission to write statutory laws and executive rules regarding health care that do not comply with federal law. Even if the health care compact is ratified, there will be no other change to the way New Hampshire citizens are treated under the law. Only if a future Legislature decides to make changes to our law will there be any change, but at that point, such changes will be permitted and the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution will not apply. Whether the New Hampshire Legislature decides to write such laws is completely up to a future Legislature, and a future Legislature may decide to do nothing. Ultimately, with the compact in place, the New Hampshire Legislature will have power granted by Congress to develop more efficient and effective policies to regulate health care within the State of New Hampshire, notwithstanding federal law. The minority of this committee thinks that the federal government has done an abysmal job regulating health care and thinks the New Hampshire Legislature could do a better job--perhaps even by letting the free market do most of the regulating itself.

The general court finds:\n\n(a) The separation of powers, both between the branches of the federal government and between federal and state authority, is essential to the preservation of individual liberty;\n\n(b) The Constitution creates a federal government of limited and enumerated powers, and reserves to the states or to the people those powers not granted to the federal government;\n\n(c) The federal government has enacted many laws that have preempted state laws with respect to health care, and placed increasing strain on state budgets, impairing other responsibilities such as education, infrastructure, and public safety;\n\n(d) The member states seek to protect individual liberty and personal control over health care decisions, and believe the best method to achieve these ends is by vesting regulatory authority over health care in the states;\n\n(e) By acting in concert, the member states may express and inspire confidence in the ability of each member state to govern health care effectively; and\n\n(f) The member states recognize that consent of Congress may be more easily secured if the member states collectively seek consent through an interstate compact.\n\nII. Now therefore, the member states hereto resolve, by adoption into law under their respective state constitutions of this Health Care Compact, to agree as follows:\n\n2 New Chapter; Health Care Compact. Amend RSA by inserting after chapter 137-K the following new chapter:\n\nCHAPTER 137-L\n\nHEALTH CARE COMPACT\n\n137-L:1 Definitions. In this chapter:\n\nI. \u201cCommission\u201d means the Interstate Advisory Health Care Commission.\n\nII. \u201cEffective date\u201d means the date upon which this Compact shall become effective for purposes of the operation of state and federal law in a member state, which shall be the later of:\n\n(a) The date upon which this Compact shall be adopted under the laws of the member state; and\n\n(b) The date upon which this Compact receives the consent of Congress pursuant to Article I, Section 10, of the United States Constitution, after at least 2 member states adopt this Compact.\n\nIII. \u201cHealth care\u201d means care, services, supplies, or plans related to the health of an individual and includes but is not limited to:\n\n(a) Preventive, diagnostic, therapeutic, rehabilitative, maintenance, or palliative care and counseling, service, assessment, or procedure with respect to the physical or mental condition or functional status of an individual or that affects the structure or function of the body;\n\n(b) Sale or dispensing of a drug, device, equipment, or other item in accordance with a prescription; and\n\n(c) An individual or group plan that provides, or pays the cost of, care, services, or supplies related to the health of an individual, except any care, services, supplies, or plans provided by the United States Department of Defense and United States Department of Veteran Affairs, or provided to native Americans.\n\nIV. \u201cMember state\u201d means a state that is signatory to this compact and has adopted it under the laws of that state.\n\nV. \u201cMember state base funding level\u201d means a number equal to the total federal spending on health care in the member state during federal fiscal year 2010. On or before the effective date of this chapter, each member state shall determine the member state base funding level for its state, and that number shall be binding upon that member state. The preliminary estimate of member state base funding level for the state of New Hampshire is $2,920,000,000.\n\nVI. \u201cMember state current year funding level\u201d means the member state base funding level multiplied by the member state current year population adjustment factor multiplied by the current year inflation adjustment factor.\n\nVII. \u201cMember state current year population adjustment factor\u201d means the average population of the member state in the current year less the average population of the member state in federal fiscal year 2010, divided by the average population of the member state in federal fiscal year 2010, plus 1. Average population in a member state shall be determined by the United States Census Bureau.\n\nVIII. \u201cCurrent year inflation adjustment factor\u201d means the total gross domestic product deflator in the current year divided by the total gross domestic product deflator in federal fiscal year 2010. Total gross domestic product deflator shall be determined by the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the United States Department of Commerce.\n\n137-L:2 Pledge. The member states shall take joint and separate action to secure the consent of the United States Congress to this Compact in order to return the authority to regulate health care to the member states consistent with the goals and principles articulated in this Compact. The member states shall improve health care policy within their respective jurisdictions and according to the judgment and discretion of each member state.\n\n137-L:3 Legislative Power. The legislatures of the member states have the primary responsibility to regulate health care in their respective states.\n\n137-L:4 State Control. Each member state, within its state, may suspend by legislation the operation of all federal laws, rules, regulations, and orders regarding health care that are inconsistent with the laws and regulations adopted by the member state pursuant to this compact. Federal and state laws, rules, regulations, and orders regarding health care shall remain in effect unless a member state expressly suspends them pursuant to its authority under this compact. For any federal law, rule, regulation, or order that remains in effect in a member state after the effective date of this chapter, that member state shall be responsible for the associated funding obligations in its state.\n\n137-L:5 Funding.\n\nI. Each federal fiscal year, each member state shall have the right to federal moneys up to an amount equal to its member state current year funding level for that federal fiscal year, funded by Congress as mandatory spending and not subject to annual appropriation, to support the exercise of member state authority under this compact. This funding shall not be conditional on any action of or regulation, policy, law, or rule being adopted by the member state.\n\nII. By the start of each federal fiscal year, Congress shall establish an initial member state current year funding level for each member state, based upon reasonable estimates. The final member state current year funding level shall be calculated, and funding shall be reconciled by the United States Congress based upon information provided by each member state and audited by the United States Government Accountability Office.\n\n137-L:6 Interstate Advisory Health Care Commission.\n\nI. The Interstate Advisory Health Care Commission is established. The Commission consists of members appointed by each member state through a process to be determined by each member state. A member state may not appoint more than 2 members to the Commission and may withdraw membership from the Commission at any time. Each Commission member is entitled to one vote. The Commission shall not act unless a majority of the members are present, and no action shall be binding unless approved by a majority of the Commission\u2019s total membership.\n\nII. The Commission may elect from among its membership a chairperson. The Commission may adopt and publish bylaws and policies that are not inconsistent with this compact.

This compact shall be effective on its adoption by at least 2 member states and consent of the United States Congress. This compact shall be effective unless the United States Congress, in consenting to this compact, alters the fundamental purposes of this compact, which are:\n\nI. To secure the right of the member states to regulate health care in their respective states pursuant to this compact and to suspend the operation of any conflicting federal laws, rules, regulations, and orders within their states; and\n\nII. To secure federal funding for member states that choose to invoke their authority under this compact, as prescribed by RSA 137-L:5.\n\n137-L:8 Amendments. The member states, by unanimous agreement, may amend this compact from time to time without the prior consent or approval of Congress and any amendment shall be effective unless, within one year, the Congress disapproves that amendment. Any state may join this compact after the date on which Congress consents to the compact by adoption into law under its state constitution.\n\n137-L:9 Withdrawal; Dissolution. Any member state may withdraw from this compact by adopting a law to that effect, but no such withdrawal shall take effect until 6 months after the governor of the withdrawing member state has given notice of the withdrawal to the other member states.
