Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The purpose of this bill is to create the Patient Safety & Transparency Act. The Legislature finds that to better facilitate planning for future states of emergency in West Virginia, a comprehensive system for nurses should be established to create staffing plans to ensure facilities are adequately staffed to handle the daily workload that may accompany a state of emergency. Although the eventual recommendations of staff suggestions could lead to operational changes within the state operated facilities, the Department does not anticipate a fiscal impact based on developing an acuity-based, patient classification system.
