Resolution No. 1007 is a concurrent resolution from the Oklahoma Legislature aimed at addressing the health care shortage in rural areas of the state. It highlights the need to support and protect the rural health care community, which is facing challenges due to the Physician Self-Referral Law, commonly known as the Stark Law. This federal law, outlined in 42 U.S.C. Section 1395nn, is seen as a barrier to providing essential medical care in these underserved regions.

The resolution calls for the State of Oklahoma to be exempt from the Stark Law and any related administrative rules that negatively impact the delivery of medical services in rural areas. By seeking this exemption, the resolution aims to enhance access to necessary health care for residents in these communities, thereby improving overall health outcomes and supporting the sustainability of rural health care providers. The resolution was adopted by the House of Representatives on March 18, 2025.
