The bill amends existing laws regarding the University Hospitals Authority by updating property descriptions and operational requirements. Specifically, it removes obsolete references to the Department of Human Services and the Commission for Human Services, transferring jurisdiction over University Hospitals to the University Hospitals Authority. The bill also clarifies the properties included in this transfer and specifies that the Department of Human Services will retain certain properties. Additionally, it establishes that any expansions or changes to the University Hospitals will not require a Certificate of Need, while also mandating that the hospitals operate as a public Level I Trauma Center and comply with relevant standards.

Furthermore, the bill requires the University Hospitals to be licensed as general hospitals and to meet the standards set by various medical accreditation organizations. It emphasizes the importance of the University Hospitals in providing training for health sciences students and ensuring care for indigent patients. The effective date for these changes is set for November 1, 2025.
