The 2008 legislature passed H.B. 133 as the centerpiece for guiding health system reform efforts. The bill passed both houses unanimously and was signed by Governor Huntsman on March 19, 2008. The part of H.B. 133 known as the “Health System Reform Act” created the Office of Consumer Health Services in the Governor’s Office of Economic Development and charged them to serve as the coordinating entity for the executive branch’s efforts to assist the legislature in health system reform. The Act also established the Health System
Reform Legislative Task Force to develop and implement the strategic plan.
