The bill amends the terms of office for members of the boards of commissioners for the Vermilion Parish Hospital Service Districts No. 1 and No. 2. Specifically, for Hospital Service District No. 1, the term length for additional members appointed by the police jury is changed from six years to four years. Similarly, for Hospital Service District No. 2, the term length for all members, including those appointed from among the physicians of the district, is also adjusted from six years to four years.

These changes aim to streamline the governance of the hospital service districts by reducing the length of terms for board members, thereby potentially allowing for more frequent turnover and fresh perspectives within the leadership of these districts. The bill reflects a legislative effort to enhance the management and oversight of healthcare services in Vermilion Parish.
