Overview
This bill establishes a medical baseline program for New Jersey residents who rely on electricity or gas for life support or have specific medical conditions. Public utilities must offer a discounted rate, called a ‘medical baseline discount,’ to qualifying customers who meet certain criteria and provide written certification from a licensed medical professional. The program also requires utilities to provide advance notice of service outages and to make information about the program readily available to customers.
