| AI Summary |
The bill allows a board of county commissioners to appoint an
individual who is already an appointed state, county, or city official to a
public hospital board of trustees (hospital board).
In current law, a hospital board must organize and operate on the
second Tuesday of each January. The bill changes that requirement to
mandate that a hospital board organize and operate on an annual basis.
The bill eliminates a requirement that one of the trustees of a hospital
board must visit and examine the hospital at least twice each month. The
bill also changes the deadline by which a hospital board must certify to
a board of county commissioners the amount necessary to maintain and
improve the hospital for the ensuing year from October 1 to December 1.
