Lets health care providers get federal money to boost security for facilities, staff, and patients.
This bill would let health care providers apply for federal grants to make their facilities safer. These grants would help pay for things like better physical security and stronger cyber defenses. The goal is to protect patients and staff and ensure everyone can safely access care.
Today, there are no specific federal grants authorized for health care providers to improve the physical and cyber security of their facilities, staff, and patients. If this bill passes, the Public Health Service Act would be changed. This would allow the Secretary of Health and Human Services to award grants, letting providers apply for federal money to make crucial security upgrades.
