Bill > SB68

This bill provides for the licensure of freestanding emergency medical care facilities in Oklahoma. It defines key terms such as "emergency care," "freestanding emergency medical care facility," and "Commissioner." The bill requires these facilities to be licensed by the State Department of Health and establishes minimum standards and requirements for the facilities, including construction, staffing, and quality assurance. The bill also grants the State Department of Health the authority to inspect the facilities, impose administrative penalties for violations, and seek injunctive relief. The bill creates a revolving fund to fund the administration and enforcement of the licensing provisions. The bill would become effective on November 1, 2019.
