SF 2367 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to health-related matters, including health-related professions, certificates of need, and nutrition, and including applicability provisions.

SF 2367 requires physicians in specific specialties (like family medicine, pediatrics, surgery, and others) to complete one hour of nutrition and metabolic health continuing education every four years to renew their licenses. It updates Iowa's certificate of need rules for hospitals and health facilities, adding new categories requiring approval (such as behavioral health outpatient services, organ transplants, and equipment over $1.5 million) while modifying bed capacity and equipment acquisition requirements. The bill also establishes Iowa's "Summer EBT Program" to provide nutrition assistance to children during summer months, aligning with federal guidelines for healthy food eligibility under SNAP. These changes directly affect licensed healthcare providers, hospitals, and families participating in nutrition assistance programs.
