HF 2143: Relating to compensation for county hospital trustees

Became HF 2428 · Its progress continues under the new number.

What it does

This bill relates to compensation for county hospital trustees. Under current law, after voters of a county vote to establish a county public hospital, the county board of supervisors appoints residents to serve as members of the hospital board of trustees. Current law prohibits a trustee from receiving any compensation for services performed as a trustee, except that a trustee shall be reimbursed for actual and necessary expenses incurred in the performance of the trustee’s duties. The bill allows a trustee to receive compensation for services performed as a trustee. Receiving compensation under the bill does not disqualify a person from serving as a trustee and does not qualify as a conflict of interest transaction.
