A 2911 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires practitioners to disclose business relationship with out-of-State facilities when making patient referrals to those facilities.

This bill requires New Jersey physicians and podiatrists (practitioners) to disclose any business relationship they have with out-of-State health care facilities before referring patients to those facilities. Practitioners must provide patients with a written disclosure form detailing the nature of the relationship, listing in-state alternatives offering the same service, and explaining potential out-of-network costs and transportation expenses. The disclosure must also be posted in the practitioner's office and on their website. Violations could result in disciplinary action by the State Board of Medical Examiners.
