County Commission members on Wednesday approved moving forward with allowing the Legislature to study whether the plan by current Erlanger Health System officials to convert the public hospital to a non-profit should be implemented.

The commission is being asked to approve a request to the Legislature to provide enabling legislation.

The move would involve abolishing the Hospital Authority that was set up by the General Assembly in 1976.

The hospital is now governed by the Hospital Authority board.
