Gov. Kathy Hochul vetoes bill that would have required hospitals to engage with communities.

The bill would have provided more transparency while slowing the timeline on which a hospital could close.

It would have increased that to 270 days' notice for full facilities and 210 for departments.

The legislation would require hospitals to organize forums at least 150 days before the proposed closure.
