Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

This bill requires hospitals participating in Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) to ask patients during admission whether they are U.S. citizens or nationals and, if not, whether they have satisfactory immigration status. Hospitals must include this question on admission forms and provide written assurance that responses will not affect care or be reported to immigration authorities. Hospitals must also annually report to the Secretary the dollar amount of uncompensated care provided to non-citizens and non-lawfully-residing individuals, as well as funds received for emergency deliveries. The Secretary must submit annual reports to Congress summarizing this data. Hospitals that fail to comply lose federal Medicaid and CHIP funding.
