Bill Summary

A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to funds transfers; to amend section 71-7611, Revised Statutes Supplement, 2025; to provide for transfers of funds from the Nebraska Health Care Cash Fund to the Patient Safety Cash Fund; to harmonize provisions; to repeal the original section; and to declare an emergency.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to create a new provision allowing for annual transfers of funds from the Nebraska Health Care Cash Fund to the Patient Safety Cash Fund. Specifically, it mandates that the State Treasurer transfer $300,000 from the Nebraska Health Care Cash Fund to the Patient Safety Cash Fund on or before July 15 of each fiscal year. The Nebraska Health Care Cash Fund is a state fund that receives money from various sources, including the Nebraska Medicaid Intergovernmental Trust Fund and the Nebraska Tobacco Settlement Trust Fund, and is used to fund healthcare programs. The Patient Safety Cash Fund is a separate fund, and this bill establishes a recurring financial contribution to it from the health care fund. The bill also repeals the original version of the law it amends and declares an emergency, meaning it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
