 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN ASSEMBLY

 (Prefiled)

 January 8, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. PAULIN -- read once and referred to the Committee
 on Consumer Affairs and Protection

 AN ACT to amend the general business law, in relation to the definition
 of medical debt

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

 1 Section 1. Subdivision (v) of section 380-a of the general business
 2 law, as amended by a chapter of the laws of 2024 amending the general
 3 business law and the public health law relating to the definition of
 4 medical debt, as proposed in legislative bills numbers S. 8373-A and A.
 5 9438, is amended to read as follows:
 6 (v) The term "medical debt" means any obligation or alleged obligation
 7 of a consumer to pay any amount whatsoever related to the receipt of
 8 health care services, products, or devices provided to a person by a
 9 hospital licensed under article twenty-eight of the public health law, a
 10 health care professional authorized under title eight of the education
 11 law, or an ambulance service certified under article thirty of the
 12 public health law. Medical debt does not include debt charged to a cred-
 13 it card unless the credit card is issued under an open-ended or closed-
 14 ended plan offered specifically for the payment of health care services,
 15 products, or devices provided to a person.
 16 § 2. This act shall take effect on the same date and in the same
 17 manner as a chapter of the laws of 2024 amending the general business
 18 law and the public health law relating to the definition of medical
 19 debt, as proposed in legislative bills numbers S. 8373-A and A. 9438,
 20 takes effect.

 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
