AN ACT relating to health services.

HB 283 amends Kentucky's health services law (KRS 216.313) to add gender-neutral language to definitions of key terms like "hospital" and "medical service area." This change directly affects how health facilities and services are legally defined across Kentucky, ensuring these terms apply equally to all people regardless of gender identity. The bill modifies existing legal language to replace gendered references with inclusive, gender-neutral terms. This is a definitional update, not a new service or funding measure, aimed at creating clearer, more inclusive legal standards for healthcare providers and patients.
