Hospital CEOs were sent proofs of each facility's economic importance report just before Thanksgiving. KHA asked for any updates or data clarification you would like to provide at that time. Today was the deadline to return those to KHA.
Staff is making updates to the reports, working with your teams and sending completed documents out as they are completed. If you have not already contacted Ginger Dreyer and still want to continue reviewing your report, please email (gdreyer@kyha.com) or call (502-426-6220 or 800-945-4542).
Thank you for all your assistance in making these reports as accurate as possible.

 KHA had an outstanding legislative session this year. All of our priority bills passed unanimously and were then signed by the Governor! This success was made possible through the collective efforts of the members and your assistance in contacting your local legislators.
Please review the 2019 Kentucky General Assembly Final Report for Hospitals, which contains a summary of KHA’s priority bills, including a detailed description of HB 320 which will provide supplemental Medicaid payments to hospitals. Information...

Most new laws approved during the Kentucky General Assembly's 2018 session
will go into effect on Saturday, July 14. KHA’s priorities all become
effective on July 14, except for SB 112 (Alvarado),
telehealth legislation, which contained a special effective date of July 1,
2019.
The Kentucky Constitution specifies that new laws take effect 90 days after
the adjournment of the legislature unless they have a special effective
date, are general appropriations measures, or include an emergency clause
that makes them effective immediately upon becoming law. Final adjournment
of the 2018 Regular Session was on April 14, making July 14 the effective
date for most bills.
A copy of the 2018 Kentucky General Assembly Report for Hospitals including the legislative voting record is available at https://www.kyha.com/assets/docs/AdvocacyDocs/2018/KHALegislativeFinalReport2018.pdf...

KHA had a victorious 2018 legislative session with KHA priorities becoming law. This success was made possible through the assistance of you and the entire KHA membership. KHA’s Legislative Platform priorities of an updated methodology for the distribution of DSH funding, peer review process confidentiality, a streamlined physician and provider credentialing process, telehealth legislation and a streamlined certificate of need process were all passed into law. New laws passed by the General Assembly that do not include an emergency clause or a different specified effective date go into effect on July 14.
We appreciate your help on legislative and regulatory issues affecting hospitals. Your work in this process is invaluable. When hospitals combine their strength and collectively express their concerns to elected officials, more can be accomplished.
