Psychiatric Hospital Inspection Transparency Act of 2025
This bill requires psychiatric hospitals to have their accreditation inspections documented using a standardized form (CMS-2567 or a future successor) starting two years after enactment. It mandates that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services publish key inspection findings on the Care Compare website two years after enactment, helping healthcare consumers compare facilities. The law includes privacy safeguards to prevent disclosure of patient or staff identities, ensuring compliance with HIPAA regulations. The bill directly affects psychiatric hospitals, accreditation bodies, and patients seeking care, by increasing transparency around facility inspections.
