Regards payment for terminal care facilities for the homeless
Refer to Committee
Summary
The bill lets hospice agencies contract with facilities that house homeless people who are terminally ill, but only if the residents have no family or financial support and meet specific medical criteria. It also requires the facility to receive no payments from residents, Medicaid, or Medicare and to meet health and safety standards. The aim is to provide hospice care without creating new funding streams.
