About this bill
Health Committee rejects proposal for smaller regional hospitals
Six MPs—Marius Langballe Dalin, Arild Hermstad, Julie E. Stuestøl, Siren Julianne Jensen, Oda Indgaard, and Ingrid Liland—proposed developing smaller hospitals, decentralizing outpatient services, and reducing travel distances for healthcare access. The Standing Committee on Health and Care Services recommends against adopting the proposal, though individual committee members have tabled separate motions on ambulance services, waiting lists, and funding for local hospitals.
