Summary

The bill lets the state’s superior court order a hospital into receivership when the attorney general or health department shows the hospital is mismanaged, financially distressed, illegal, or endangering patient safety. A court‑appointed receiver can take control, preserve assets, and sell them to pay debts, with any leftovers returned to shareholders. This aims to safeguard health care services and protect patients.
