Property owners in small towns (under 3,000 people) and medically underserved areas can no longer use contracts or deed restrictions to ban healthcare services on commercially-zoned land. The bill makes any such prohibitive contracts or restrictions unenforceable in these specific areas, ensuring healthcare providers can operate in communities that lack adequate medical services. This overrides existing property restrictions that might otherwise prevent healthcare businesses from locating on certain commercial properties.
