    Dear Mr. Constand,

    Thank you for the work that you and your members do every day on behalf of some of
    Michigan’s most vulnerable residents. I write today in response to your letter dated April
    30 regarding legislation which would address fee schedules for care providers.

    On several occasions I have raised this topic with House Speaker Jason Wentworth and
    Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey, expressing my openness to a targeted approach that
    ensures our most vulnerable have access to care.

    As you know, a policy solution must begin with legislative action. To date, the legislature
    has not scheduled a committee hearing nor a committee or floor vote on this issue. Further,
    you may have seen the Senate Majority Leader’s public statement that he is not interested
    in changing Michigan’s no fault statute. I remain a willing partner and stand ready to
    engage with the legislature on this issue.

    Respectfully,

    Gretchen Whitmer
    Governor
