Patient Safety and Whistleblower Protections Act safeguards health care providers from retaliation for raising patient safety concerns.
The Patient Safety and Whistleblower Protections Act aims to protect health care providers from retaliation when they raise patient safety concerns. It prohibits health care facilities from taking adverse actions against practitioners for communicating about patient safety concerns. The Act also establishes a mechanism for anonymously reporting patient safety concerns and requires a process for investigating and addressing these reports.
The filed bill text is too short for analysis.
