Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The ICU Bed Act of 2026 amends Medicare regulations to require hospitals, critical access hospitals, and rural emergency hospitals to participate in real-time data sharing systems that report intensive care unit bed availability to other hospitals in their region. Hospitals must also develop shared strategies with regional peers to efficiently transfer patients when ICU capacity is reached or approached. The bill establishes this as a condition of Medicare participation, effective one year after enactment, and extends federal funding for state and regional hospital preparedness programs through fiscal year 2031.
