Birth Center supporters who would like to attend and give testimony of support for the approval of PCC South Certificate of Need application must PRE-register with the HFSRB by submitting the completed and signed HEALTH FACILITIES AND SERVICES REVIEW BOARD PUBLIC PARTICIPATION FORM (attached) by 5pm tomorrow, Wednesday January 16.  

Letters of support can be sent to the Administrator for  the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review BoardCourtney Averycourtney.avery@illinois.gov or fax to 217-785-4111.  

We are hoping for and expecting a positive outcome. We are awaiting the State Agency Report, which will become available by January 24th.  Once we review the state report we will have a better idea of the likelihood of HFSRB approval. We have learned that supportive letters and brief presentations are appreciated by the board.
Thank you for your continued support!
