Limits identification of hospital workers to protect their safety and privacy.
New York Assembly Bill A09536 amends the public health law to restrict the identification of individuals who provide face-to-face care or direct observation of patients to their employee ID, first name, and first initial of their last name when full name identification may jeopardize their safety. It also requires complainants to submit only their employer's address in cases involving an alleged offense against a hospital worker. This change aims to protect the personal safety and privacy of healthcare workers.
