Hospital Equity

Assembly Bill No. 1204 requires the Department of Health Care Access and Information (HCAI) to 
develop and administer a Hospital Equity Measures Reporting Program to collect and post summaries 
of key hospital performance and patient outcome data regarding sociodemographic information, 
including but not limited to age, sex, race/ethnicity, payor type, language, disability status, and 
sexual orientation and gender identity.


Hospitals (general acute, children's, and acute psychiatric) and hospital systems are required to 
annually submit their reports to HCAI.These reports contain summaries of each measure, the top 10 
disparities, and the equity plans to address the identified disparities. HCAI is required to 
maintain a link on the HCAI website that provides access to the content of hospital equity measures 
reports and equity plans to the public. All submitted hospitals are required to post their reports 
on their websites, as well.
