Bill overview
The No Patient Left Alone Act of 2025 aims to ensure that patients in hospitals have the right to visit and are informed about these rights. This bill updates Medicare regulations to require hospitals to establish written policies outlining visitation procedures and patient notification. Hospitals must detail any restrictions on visitation, providing a clinical justification, and cannot deny visitation based on discriminatory factors. The legislation seeks to improve patient experience and support by guaranteeing access to loved ones during their hospital stay.
