Iowa HF2471 regulates electronic monitoring devices in health care facilities and modifies penalties for violations.

Iowa HF2471 introduces regulations for electronic monitoring devices in health care facilities. It mandates that facilities allow residents or their representatives to install and operate these devices in their rooms, provided they obtain written consent from roommates. Facilities must make reasonable accommodations for device placement and cannot refuse admission, discharge, or retaliate against residents using these devices. The bill also requires facilities to post notices when rooms are subject to electronic monitoring.
