R. M. Maher, J.
(concurring). I concur in the result reached by Judge Cynar, since I continue to adhere to my view that the medical malpractice arbitration act, MCL 600.5040 et seq.; MSA 27A.5040 et seq., is unconstitutional. See Piskorski v Art Centre Hospital, 110 Mich App 22; 312 NW2d 160 (1981). However, for the reasons set forth in my concurring opinion in Strong v Oakwood Hospital Corp, 118 Mich App 395; — NW2d — (1982), I cannot agree that this Court has the power to declare the arbitration agreement signed by plaintiff’s decedent "unconscionable”.
I concur in the result.
