Bill > HB05962

This bill proposes to modify Connecticut's existing sales and use tax statutes by creating a specific tax exemption for hospital beds that will be used in home health care settings. By amending section 12-412 of the state's general statutes, the legislation would eliminate sales and use taxes on the purchase, storage, and use of hospital beds intended for home health care purposes. This means that individuals or organizations purchasing hospital beds for use in home health care environments would not have to pay additional sales tax on these medical equipment items. The exemption is designed to potentially reduce the financial burden on patients, families, or healthcare providers who need hospital beds for home-based medical care, making such essential medical equipment more affordable and accessible.
