Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill requires hospitals to ask patients about their immigration status, but patients do not have to provide this information to receive care. Hospitals must report the total cost of medical care for asylum seekers to the state, and the state will then report these costs to the Governor and Legislature. The state will also ask the federal government for reimbursement for these medical care costs.
