Summary

The bill directs the Minnesota commissioner of health to set up two relief programs—one for hospitals and one for community‑based safety‑net providers—that experience high levels of unpaid care. Eligible hospitals must report qualifying episodes of care and will receive payments based on their share of the statewide total, with caps on how much any one hospital can get. The goal is to ease the financial burden on providers serving uninsured patients.
