Section 22-6-233 Legislative findings; certification of collaborators; powers of Medicaid Agency;
state action immunity. (a) The Legislature declares that collaboration among public payers,
private health carriers, third party purchasers, and providers to identify appropriate service
delivery systems and reimbursement methods in order to align incentives in support of integrated
and coordinated health care delivery is in the best interest of the public. Collaboration
pursuant to this article is to provide quality health care at the lowest possible cost to

health care delivery system affirmatively contemplates the foreseeable displacement of competition,
such that any anti-competitive effect may be attributed to the state's policy to displace
competition in the delivery of a coordinated system of health care for the public benefit.
In furtherance of this goal, the Legislature declares its intent...

Section 34-21A-1 Purpose. The Alabama Onsite Wastewater Board is created to examine, license,
and regulate persons engaged in the manufacture, installation, or servicing of onsite sewage
systems in Alabama. As more residences are built in rural areas where public sewer hookups
and centralized sewage treatment systems are often unavailable, many property owners must
rely on onsite sewage systems, such as septic systems, to handle residential waste and sewage.
The improper manufacture, installation, service, cleaning, and maintenance of onsite sewage
equipment and treatment systems can contaminate and pollute the environment and pose significant
harm to public health and the rural environment. This board is created to establish the qualification
levels for those engaged in the manufacture, installation, servicing, or cleaning of onsite
sewage systems and equipment in Alabama and promote the proper manufacture, installation,
and servicing of onsite sewage systems. (Act 99-571, p. 1265,...
