NY S03355

Expands the definition of "temporary health care services agency" to include digital platforms and apps that enable health care entities to engage individuals to perform health care services, not just those that directly employ or procure workers

Clarifies that agencies using technology-based solutions to connect health care facilities with workers fall under the same regulatory requirements as traditional staffing agencies

Requires these digital platforms to document that each individual they connect with health care entities meets minimum licensing, training, and continuing education standards

Mandates that digital platforms submit copies of all contracts and invoices with health care entities to the Department of Health within five business days of their effective date

Amends existing 2023 legislation (Part X of Chapter 57 of the Laws of 2023) governing temporary health care services agencies to close potential regulatory gaps for app-based staffing services
