=No change to gun accessmodel confidence 80%
Requires hospitals to develop policies, train staff, and offer or coordinate psychiatric services specifically for victims of firearm violence upon discharge, increasing structured support for those affected by gun violence.
Every general hospital shall: (a) develop, maintain and disseminate written policies and procedures for the identification, assessment, treatment and referral of confirmed or suspected cases of firearm violence;
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds hospital requirements focused exclusively on identification, treatment, referral, and psychiatric service coordination for firearm violence victims; this addresses firearms via victim support but does not change rules on buying, owning, carrying, or accessing firearms themselves, so it is neutral on the firearms axis with no relevant provisions for the other tracked topics.
