HB 24 Wyoming House · 2024 Regular Session

Certificate of need repeal.

HB 24 repeals Wyoming's requirement for health care facilities to obtain formal department approval before expanding beds or building additions. It changes the process so facilities only need to submit plans for the Department of Health's written comments, rather than prior approval. The bill also removes specific bed expansion limits for nursing homes and hospitals. This change takes effect July 1, 2024, directly affecting health care providers planning facility expansions.
