This bill would let the Department of Health and Human Services give grants to hospitals, clinics, and other health care providers to make their buildings and computer systems safer. The money could pay for guards or other security services, better door and entry systems, video cameras, stronger data privacy tools, and building upgrades to protect staff and patients and keep care accessible and safe. It covers both physical safety and cybersecurity needs at health care sites.
