What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Health Services to distribute grants to

hospitals, health systems, and educational entities that form health care education

and training consortia for allied health professionals. The bill limits the amount the

department may distribute each fiscal year per consortium to $125,000, which may

used for curriculum and faculty development, tuition reimbursement, or clinical site

or simulation expenses. The bill also requires a grant recipient to match through its

own funding sources the amount of the grant awarded by the department.
