This bill requires hospitals that employ, or contract with, physicians who furnish emergency medical services to provide specified due process protections before taking certain actions with respect to their employment. Specifically, hospitals may not terminate or restrict the professional activity or staff privileges of these physicians without a fair hearing and appellate review process through appropriate medical staff mechanisms. Third-party contracts shall not deny these processes.
