Proposals which could see A&E services at Dewsbury Hospital downgraded are to be put to public consultation.
The plans, by Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust, would see Wakefield's Pinderfields Hospital become the district's main A&E department.
The trust has to save ?24m by April but will still face a ?26m deficit.
NHS Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield District Cluster Board unanimously voted to support a consultation on the plans which will begin later this year.
