SB 679 (Weber Pierson, D-San Diego)
Neutral if Amended
Held on the Senate Appropriations Committee suspense file on May 23.
SB 679 would require health care facilities or peer review bodies to annually report data on physician and medical resident terminations, staff privilege applications, approvals, and revocations — stratified by race and gender — to the Civil Rights Department and Medical Board of California. The Civil Rights Department would then be required to publish this information on its website, not disclose the names of the health care facilities, and remove any personally identifiable information.
