Tax-exempt hospitals would need to share more financial details and how they help their communities.
This bill would require hospitals that don't pay taxes to report much more information to the government. This includes details on how they address community health needs, how much financial aid they provide, and how they spend money on different services. Larger hospitals would have even more extensive reporting duties, aiming to increase transparency about their operations.
Today, tax-exempt hospitals provide some information on their annual tax returns, but they don't have to report detailed breakdowns of how they address community health needs, their specific spending on quality improvement or non-medical programs, or detailed financial data for each health service they offer. After this bill, all tax-exempt hospitals would provide more information, and larger ones (those with over 100 staffed inpatient beds or over $100,000,000 in net patient revenue) would have significantly more detailed, facility-specific reporting requirements, including advertising costs and health service line finances.
