Relating to facility fees charged by certain health care providers; providing an administrative penalty.
HB 2075 bans health care providers (including hospitals, urgent care clinics, and freestanding emergency facilities) from charging "facility fees" for health care services, except for services provided on a hospital campus or emergency care. Facility fees are defined as charges meant to cover operational costs, separate from professional medical service fees. The Health and Human Services Commission can impose administrative penalties of up to $1,000 for violations. This bill directly affects providers that currently charge these fees, aiming to prevent separate billing for facility operations.
