62J.691 PURPOSE.
The legislature finds that medical education and research are important to the health and
economic well being of Minnesotans. The legislature further finds that, as a result of competition
in the health care marketplace, these teaching and research institutions are facing increased
difficulty funding medical education and research. The purpose of sections
62J.692 and
62J.693
is to help offset lost patient care revenue for those teaching institutions affected by increased
competition in the health care marketplace and to help ensure the continued excellence of health
care research in Minnesota.
