Statement From Florida Hospital Association President and CEO Mary Mayhew on the Florida House’s Recommended Budget for Health Care

Posted on March 25, 2021

Florida Hospital Association President and CEO Mary Mayhew today responded to the Florida House’s recommended health care budget for the upcoming fiscal year.

“In the midst of a pandemic, a half-billion-dollar budget cut to hospitals is a gut punch to the doctors, nurses and health care heroes who risked their lives responding to this crisis. It is simply beyond belief that during a public health emergency, some state lawmakers chose to balance the budget by cutting funding that serves the elderly, disabled, and most vulnerable families in our state. We call upon our state leaders to use a small portion of the $10 billion in new federal COVID-19 relief money to help Florida’s hospitals and the patients they serve.”
