 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 7112

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 April 1, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. SKOUFIS -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Health

 AN ACT to amend the public health law, in relation to requiring health
 districts be accredited to receive funding from the department of
 health

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature finds that ensuring
 2 high-quality public health services is critical to the well-being of all
 3 residents. Accreditation improves accountability, service delivery, and
 4 health outcomes by establishing evidence based uniform standards. The
 5 legislature recognizes that as the leading national accrediting body for
 6 public health in the U.S., the Public Health Accreditation Board
 7 supports health departments to improve quality, accountability, and
 8 performance.
 9 § 2. Subdivision 1 of section 201 of the public health law is amended
 10 by adding a new paragraph (z) to read as follows:
 11 (z) As a condition precedent to receiving funding from the department,
 12 the commissioner shall require health districts to register for the
 13 public health accreditation board's readiness and training process with-
 14 in one year of the effective date of this paragraph and be accredited
 15 within four years after the effective date of this paragraph by an
 16 accreditation body approved by the commissioner. The commissioner shall
 17 be authorized to establish rules and regulations to implement the
 18 provisions of this paragraph.
 19 § 3. This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day after
 20 it shall have become a law. Effective immediately, the addition, amend-
 21 ment and/or repeal of any rule or regulation necessary for the implemen-
 22 tation of this act on its effective date are authorized to be made and
 23 completed on or before such effective date.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
