Summary

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to establish a credit to incentivize the use of certain low-emission anesthetic gases by health care facilities, and for other purposes.

Plain-language summary

This bill would create a tax credit—a reduction in taxes owed—for hospitals and medical facilities that use low-emission anesthetic gases during surgery. Anesthetic gases are drugs that put patients to sleep for procedures. Some of these gases can harm the environment by contributing to ozone depletion and climate change. The bill aims to encourage health care facilities to switch to safer alternatives. The bill was introduced by Representative Valerie Foushee and is currently in the early stages of the legislative process.
