Louisiana SB45 exempts nonprofit organizations providing gratuitous end-of-life care in a home setting from hospice licensure if they meet specific criteria. These criteria include providing care at no cost, not receiving payments from public or private health insurance, and offering individual private bedrooms for no more than three patients. The bill also allows licensed healthcare professionals to delegate caregiver tasks to designated individuals in good faith and with reasonable care, granting them immunity from disciplinary actions.
