Does A Mobile Trailer Need A Certificate Of Need? www.atlantisworldwide.com By: Vikki Harmonay
Good question, but first things first: a CON is a Certificate of Need. These are legislated by each individual state and not every state requires one. A CON regulates the overbuilding of healthcare facilities and healthcare price regulation. • There are pros and cons about Certificate of Need laws. The pros are: • These laws distribute healthcare across a city, county or state • They provide an evaluation to healthcare • It protects patient costs www.atlantisworldwide.com
The cons are: • It reduces the free market • It potentially reduces supply increasing demand/pricing • Cumbersome evaluation slows market response • It’s inconsistent from state to state • It reduces the consumer urgency to own individual healthcare • It allows lobbyists and politics to enter into healthcare considerations www.atlantisworldwide.com
So how do you know if your state requires a Certificate of Need? You can find out about CON laws by visiting the National Conference of State Legislatures website at www.ncsl.org. Just remember—every state’s requirements are different. If you are interested in purchasing a new piece of medical imaging equipment, it’s important to know whether your state requires a CON before you make a purchase. www.atlantisworldwide.com
