An Act relative to hospital profit and fairness

Healthcare costs are skyrocketing. One issue contributing to the rise of healthcare costs is that the salaries paid to CEOs do not in any way reflect the quality of care, patient outcomes, or community benefits.

This legislation requires hospitals receiving public money to disclose financial assets and assess fees on publicly funded hospitals that compensate executives more than 100 times more than other employees. These fees will fund a Medicaid Reimbursement Enhancement Fund, which will increase Medicaid reimbursements to eligible hospitals.
