Requires Medicare to treat specified direct and indirect costs of hospital‑run nursing and allied health education programs as reasonable costs. This change increases allowable reimbursements to hospitals that operate these training programs.
It directs the Health and Human Services Secretary to issue rules within 120 days, stops Medicare from recouping these education‑program costs as of enactment, and orders refunds for recoupments taken in the prior six years. The goal is to stabilize funding for hospital‑based training and support the health care workforce pipeline.
Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.
