          <text>&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Healthcare Worker Retention Act &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill establishes through 2024 a new refundable health care worker tax credit, equal to $1,000 for individual taxpayers (1) who work in a healthcare setting as an employee or contractor for at least an average of 20 hours per week, and 3 months during each half of a taxable year; and (2) whose gross income does not exceed $100,000 ($200,000 for joint returns or for a surviving spouse). The bill defines &lt;em&gt;healthcare setting&lt;/em&gt; as an organization that provides healthcare services in specified settings, including a hospital, a nursing home, a community-based healthcare center, a school or college campus, a primary care facility, an assisted living facility, a hospice or home care, emergency medical services, or any other licensed facility that extends healthcare services to patients, including the elderly and disabled.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The bill directs the Internal Revenue Service to establish a program to make semiannual advance payments of healthcare worker tax credit amounts.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
