Go to topNEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)   BILL NUMBER: A3397 SPONSOR: Kim
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to repeal article 30-d of the public health law relating to the emergency or disaster treatment protection act   PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: This bill repeals Article 30-D of the Public Health Law (colloquially known as the Emergency or Disaster Treatment Protection Act) with the intent of holding health care facilities, administrators, and executives accountable for harm and damages incurred.   SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1 amends the Public Health Law by repealing Article 30-D. Section 2 provides the effective date.   DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ORIGINAL AND AMENDED VERSION (IF APPLICABLE): This is a new bill.   JUSTIFICATION: As the COVID-19 pandemic has progressed in New York State, it is now apparent that negligence by administrators and executives of nursing homes has occurred at an extraordinary degree. The consequences have been tragic: as of early May 2020, nearly five thousand of New York's elderly and most vulnerable residents have succumbed to this disease, and to date, there has been zero accountability nor transparency for these preventable deaths. The ELFA bill (A.9506/S.7506) in the FY 2021 state budget bills codified Article 30-D of the Public Health Law. In particular, Article 30-D egregiously uses severe liability standards as a means to insulate health care facilities and specifically, administra- tors and executives of such facilities, from any civil or criminal liability for negligence. Repealing this article is a much-needed step to holding health care administrators accountable and doing everything possible to stop even more preventable deaths from happening.   PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: This is a new bill.   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: None.   EFFECTIVE DATE: Immediately upon passage.
