AB 2311: Health care districts: employment.
The bill aims to amend the law regarding the employment of physicians and surgeons in health care districts. Currently, the law restricts the employment of medical professionals by corporations or artificial entities that do not charge for professional services and are approved by the Medical Board of California. The bill would create an exemption for health care districts and certain nonprofit corporations that own or control a general acute care hospital, allowing them to employ physicians and surgeons and charge for professional services. The health care district would not be allowed to interfere with or control the professional judgment of the physician or surgeon.
