HB 2337 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Hospitals and Health Care Facilities - As enacted, requires the attorney general, in making a decision as to whether to object to a public benefit hospital conveyance transaction, to consider whether the proceeds will be controlled as funds independently of the acquiring or related entities; makes certain exemptions. - Amends TCA Title 48, Chapter 68 and Title 68, Chapter 11.

HB 2337 requires public benefit hospitals in Tennessee to provide written notice to the state attorney general and reporter at least 30 days before selling or transferring ownership of their facilities. This bill directly affects public benefit hospital entities and state oversight offices by adding a mandatory transparency step for such transactions. The key provision is the 30-day advance notice requirement, which must be submitted in writing. The bill amends Tennessee law to implement this notice period, without changing hospital ownership rules or financial obligations. (This is a procedural bill focused on disclosure timing.)
