Governor Whitmer Signs Senate Bill 28  

 

LANSING, Mich. – Governor Whitmer today signed Senate Bill 28, which establishes a relief fund for post-acute care providers to ensure that those providers can continue to maintain quality care to help accident victims recover from their injuries.

“I am committed to ensuring that catastrophically injured Michiganders can access the care they need to recover,” said Governor Whitmer. “We must continue to work together to ensure that our most vulnerable individuals have access to the care they are entitled to under their insurance policies.”
