AI Summary

This bill establishes criteria that must be included by the Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) in rules relating to the licensure of certain hospitals performing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures. The bill amends the existing law to define two levels of hospital program licensure for adult cardiovascular services: a Level I program that authorizes the performance of PCI without onsite cardiac surgery, and a Level II program that authorizes the performance of PCI with onsite cardiac surgery. The bill also sets specific requirements for nursing and technical staff experience in handling acutely ill patients requiring intervention based on their previous experience in dedicated cardiovascular interventional laboratories or surgical centers.
