The bill also suggests new standards for hospital price transparency.
State Sen. Katie Muth introduced the bill.
“Every Pennsylvanian should be concerned about it, because there is no stopgap for a hospital just packing up and getting out of Dodge,” Ms. Muth told the publication. “There is no mechanism in which the state has a program where they can step in.”
The bill is up for debate, with major health systems and some legislators concerned over how it may worsen staffing shortages or access to care, according to The Morning Call.
