HB 666 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Creates provisions relating to immunity from criminal liability for health care providers

HB 666 creates a new law granting health care providers immunity from criminal charges for harm arising from their care, except in cases of gross negligence, willful misconduct, or intentional acts. It defines "health care provider" to include licensed professionals (like doctors and nurses) and facility employees, covering services under Missouri health regulations. The bill explicitly states this immunity does not affect liability for gross negligence or intentional harm, nor does it change other existing legal protections or defenses.
