Board of County Commissioners

Health Care Review Task Force

• Purpose: Evaluate and suggest reforms to the County's current health care financing practices (specifically focusing on the two special tax levies commonly referred to as the Indigent Care Levy and the Drake Levy) to assure continued quality care while reducing the tax burden on Hamilton County residents.

• Establishing Authority: A Motion adopted by the Board of County Commissioners of Hamilton County, Ohio, on April 6, 2005, Volume 298, Image 124.

• Composition: Membership of the HCRC will primarily consist of individuals with a working knowledge of the current health care system in our region. Members will also be chosen for specific skill sets that will aid the commission in its work. The Commissioners will ensure that appointees to the HCRC do not have a conflict of interest that could be perceived as an impediment to the objective completion of the HCRC's mission (specifically, representatives from entities which receive county funding from the Indigent Care Levy or the Drake Levy will not be appointed to the commission). The membership of the HCRC is subject to change / grow as expertise is needed. The Commissioners will hire a consultant and provide staff support to aid the commission in its work.
