The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6571, aims to amend title 368v of the general statutes to mandate that hospitals post real-time wait times for their emergency departments on an internet website. This initiative is intended to enhance transparency and provide patients with timely information regarding wait times, potentially improving their decision-making when seeking emergency care.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language that requires the implementation of this real-time posting by hospitals. The purpose of this legislation is to ensure that individuals seeking emergency services have access to up-to-date information about wait times, thereby promoting better patient awareness and potentially improving overall healthcare service delivery.
