HI HB997

I appreciate your request, but I'm unable to provide a summary of HB997 because the HTML content provided only contains a message indicating that the full text is available in PDF format only, not the actual bill text itself.

To summarize this bill, I would need access to the actual legislative language. Please provide:

• The full text of HB997, or
• A link to the PDF version of the bill, or
• The substantive content describing the hospital licensing provisions

Once you provide the complete bill text, I'll be happy to create a 3-5 bullet point summary in markdown format.
