Rural Hospital Malpractice Liability

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill creates the Rural Hospital Malpractice Liability Insurance Act, establishing a grant program to help rural hospitals pay for medical malpractice insurance. It creates two new funds: a trust fund and a program fund, with an initial appropriation of $100 million to the trust fund. Rural hospitals can apply to the Department of Health for grants if they meet certain criteria, such as operating in an underserved area and using the funds only for insurance premiums.
