Mark Ustin, partner at Farrell Fritz, was on the Capitol Confidential podcast to discuss the Berger Commission. Ustin, former general counsel to the commission, explains the circumstances that led to the formation of the commission and the results of the comprehensive fifteen-month project.
The Berger Commission was created in 2005 under Gov. George Pataki to overhaul the delivery of healthcare in New York. The final report from the commission recommended closing and merging many hospitals across New York state.
The Capitol Confidential podcast airs weekly on Fridays and is run by Times Union reporter David Lombardo.
