AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Public Safety: A Shell Lake man facing an OWI case in Barron County was arrested in Washburn County for fifth-offense drunken driving after a traffic stop near Highways 53/63; he was taken for a blood draw and booked on multiple charges. Severe Crashes: A fatal motorcycle crash on I-41 southbound in Washington County shut down the highway and was followed by a multi-vehicle crash that injured several people, including an infant flown to Children’s Wisconsin. Healthy Aging & Fitness: UW Extension certified five Phillips-area residents as StrongBodies instructors, expanding strength-training options for midlife and older adults starting Sept. 14. Food & Benefits Policy: Wisconsin lawmakers advanced AB180, requiring DHS to seek a federal waiver to restrict FoodShare purchases of candy and soft drinks; multiple reps voted yes, while others opposed. Health Costs: A UW economy report finds Wisconsin hospital negotiated rates about 26% higher than Illinois for similar inpatient services. Community Health & Risk: Sheboygan County tick risk modeling flags Elkhart Lake as highest, with Lyme carried by deer ticks remaining a key concern. Medicaid Politics: An op-ed argues a new federal Medicaid rule could strip coverage from seriously ill Wisconsinites, warning of lost medications and care. Healthcare Access & Care Decisions: AB598 advanced to let patient representatives help admit incapacitated people to nursing facilities without guardianship petitions, reshaping admission consent rules.
