Extends provisions for payments from the New York State medical indemnity fund and repeals certain provisions upon expiration.

This bill amends the public health law to extend provisions for payments from the New York State medical indemnity fund. It ensures that qualified plaintiffs already enrolled in the fund for the entire state fiscal year will continue to receive payments even if total expenditures exceed available appropriation authority. The bill also mandates that the state comptroller transfer money from the state treasury into the fund account to avoid suspension of new enrollment. Certain provisions of the bill will be repealed upon expiration on March 31, 2027.
