AZ SB1031

Amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 11-296 regarding county records of indigent hospital care.

Requires contractors or persons in charge of hospitals to maintain accurate written records of patient admissions, including names, admission dates, diagnoses, length of stay, and discharge or death dates.

Requires verified statements containing required patient information to be filed quarterly with the county board.

Contractors cannot receive payment for services until they comply with record-keeping and filing requirements.

Makes technical corrections by replacing gendered pronouns with "the contractor" for clarity.
