Summary
The Technical Reset to Advance the Instruction of Nurses (TRAIN) Act aims to protect funding for hospitals that operate nursing and allied health professional training programs. The bill would prevent the federal government from recouping past Medicare overpayments made to these hospital-based programs between 2010 and 2019, which occurred due to a technical administrative error regarding payment caps. By ensuring these hospitals keep the funding already used for clinical training, the bill seeks to maintain the stability of the healthcare workforce pipeline and ensure that nursing students continue to receive necessary hands-on instruction.
