The General Assembly finds that Georgia faces population and community health challenges. The current health infrastructure must be adapted to adequately integrate state and private resources in a manner that will serve to maximize the state’s goals, including improved access to care, effective health management strategies, and cost control measures. All components of the state’s health care system must be more strategic and better coordinated. The General Assembly, therefore, declares it to be the public policy of the state to unite the major stakeholders of the state’s health care system under a strategic vision for Georgia. The public policy shall be realized through an agency focused on strategic health care management and coordination.
