HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
As we begin the new year, we extend our sincere appreciation for your continued trust and partnership. We wish you a year filled with progress, opportunity, and success. We look forward to working together and supporting your goals in the year ahead.
What lies ahead for legislation:
The California Legislature will reconvene on January 5, 2026. Any bills not passed during the 2025 session will have until January 31, 2026, to advance. The legislative session will then continue through August 31, 2026. The Nevada Legislature is not scheduled to convene until February 2027.
California Clients:
We encourage California-based clients to stay actively engaged by connecting with your respective associations. Hospitals should consider working closely with the California Hospital Association, while physician groups may benefit from engagement with the California Medical Association. These organizations play a critical role in monitoring legislation, providing updates, and coordinating advocacy efforts.
Nevada Clients:
Although Nevada’s legislative session does not begin until 2027, proactive engagement remains essential. Now is the time to build relationships with your state, understand their priorities, share your perspectives, and work collaboratively to help avoid unexpected or unfavorable legislation. We also recommend staying connected with Nevada Rural Hospital Partners and the Nevada Hospital Association to remain informed and involved.
Looking Ahead:
Both California and Nevada will have gubernatorial races during this period. We encourage you to listen to the candidates, engage thoughtfully, and ask questions… particularly regarding their positions on healthcare and healthcare operations.
Effective advocacy starts with those on the front lines. Your insight from the billing office and day-to-day operations is invaluable in shaping informed, practical policy discussions.
As always, we will continue to monitor legislative activity and share updates as developments occur.
