A Resolution directing the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to examine the financial impact of outdated hospital regulations on hospitals in this Commonwealth.

House Resolution 513 directs the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to study how outdated hospital regulations, which have not been updated in nearly 40 years, financially affect hospitals across Pennsylvania. The study will examine the number of overlapping rules, the administrative costs hospitals incur to comply, and the resources required to manage complex oversight structures. To assist with this review, the committee will form an advisory group that includes representatives from state agencies and hospitals of various types, including rural, urban, and suburban facilities. The committee is required to submit a report with its findings and recommendations within 12 months to relevant legislative leaders.
