Mark Pazniokas :: CT Mirror Sen. Mary Daugherty Abrams, D-Meriden, center, championed passage Tuesday of the bill declaring racism a public health crisis.

The declaration was part of an omnibus bill that also calls for better data collection on race and ethnicity in health care, requires hospitals to conduct implicit bias training for employees who provide direct care to pregnant or postpartum women, mandates that the public health commissioner study the development of a recruitment and retention program for state health care workers who are people of color, and directs the health department to explore whether to create a certification process for doulas.

CT health care reform stumbles as legislative session nears end

NICOLE LEONARD :: CONNECTICUT PUBLIC RADIO State Comptroller Kevin Lembo shares his support for a public option health insurance program at a November news conference. Behind him are Rep. Sean Scanlon (left) and House Speaker Matthew Ritter. In November, two months before Connecticut’s General Assembly convened for the 2021 regular session, lawmakers stood under the portico at the front of the state Capitol and pledged to tackle the cost of health care and access to medical services, mainly through a public option bill. Three months later, on the same day he released his biennial budget proposal, Gov. Ned Lamont unveiled his own legislation aimed at addressing health care reform that included an annual cap on prescription drug costs.
