Requires DOH approval for adverse possessory action against hospitals.

S 1160 requires landlords to obtain written approval from New Jersey's Department of Health (DOH) before taking actions like evicting hospital operators or terminating leases at hospitals. This directly affects hospital landlords, operators (the entities running hospitals), and their successors. The bill prohibits such actions without DOH approval - deeming them invalid - and imposes penalties including up to $1 million civil fines, license suspensions, and potential criminal charges if violations cause hospital closures. Landlords must justify "just cause" for requests, and operators can seek financial recovery for revenue losses from unauthorized actions. The law aims to prevent disruptions to hospital operations and patient care.
