	BILL TEXT


INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Perea

                        FEBRUARY 18, 2011

   An act to amend Section 440.20 of the Health and Safety Code,
relating to health facilities.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1280, as introduced, Perea. Health Facilities Disclosure Act.
   Existing law, the Health Facilities Disclosure Act, requires
health care facilities to provide to the primary attending health
care practitioner a copy of the complete itemized charges for
services rendered by the health facility to the health care
practitioner's patient when the primary attending health care
practitioner is not employed by the health facility nor is a member
of an integrated group practice that provided the health facility
services, as specified.
   This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to a
provision of the Health Facilities Disclosure Act.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 440.20 of the Health and Safety Code is amended
to read:
   440.20.  Within seven days after completion of the patient's
itemized bill,  every   a  health facility
shall provide to the primary attending health care practitioner a
copy, upon written request specifying the individual patient, of the
complete itemized charges for services rendered by the health
facility to the health care practitioner's patient when the primary
attending health care practitioner is not employed by the health
facility nor is a member of an integrated group practice that
provided the health facility services.
