Indiana SB0225 amends hospital regulations, including restrictions on medical debt collection and requirements for hospital closures or service.

Indiana SB0225 amends the Indiana Code to introduce several healthcare-related provisions. It modifies the definition of "ambulatory outpatient surgical center" to allow surgical procedures to be performed by qualified professionals without requiring specific hospital privileges. The bill also restricts hospitals, debt collectors, and third parties from pursuing medical debt collection if the patient is making good-faith payment efforts. Additionally, it prohibits hospitals from placing liens on patients' primary residences for medical debt.
