SB 239: AN ACT CONCERNING NUTRITION AND FOOD-BASED INTERVENTIONS FOR PATIENTS WITH DIABETES AND CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE.

SB 239 requires hospitals in Connecticut to examine the nutrition needs of community members with diabetes or congestive heart failure during their community health needs assessments. Hospitals must include these needs in their assessments and prioritize food-based health programs for these patients in their community benefits plans. The law, effective October 1, 2026, applies to all hospitals conducting such assessments under state law. It does not mandate specific dietary changes but directs hospitals to integrate nutrition support into their community health strategies, consistent with federal guidelines.
