SB 2435 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

TennCare - As introduced, increases from seven to 10 days, the mandatory public inspection period for a hospital's marketing and strategic planning records prior to a vote by its board to adopt such plans. - Amends TCA Title 3; Title 4; Title 5; Title 6; Title 7; Title 33; Title 41; Title 47; Title 53; Title 56; Title 63; Title 68 and Title 71.

SB 2435 extends the required public review period for hospital strategic planning and marketing documents from seven to ten days before a hospital board votes to adopt such plans. This change applies directly to hospitals participating in Tennessee's TennCare program and requires them to provide the public with a longer notice period for review. The bill amends Tennessee Code Section 68-11-238 to implement this 3-day extension, focusing solely on procedural timing without altering healthcare benefits or funding.
