New York study shows regulatory costs unreasonably high.

Concerned about the high and rising costs of compliance with regulations imposed by all sources, the Hospital Association of New York State (HANYS) undertook a study to determine the precise nature of those costs. The study shows both that the costs are high and that regulatory influence is pervasive. HANYS recommends that all concerned with the regulatory process, regulators and regulated alike, take a new, hard look at regulations.
