New Jersey may be the first state to impose per-bed fees on nonprofit hospitals for municipal services
New Jersey lawmakers approved an unusual measure last week that requires many nonprofit hospitals to pay per-bed fees to their local governments, while preserving their increasingly contested property-tax exemptions.
The legislation, which requires hospitals to pay a fee of $3 a day for each licensed bed, is in response to a landmark 2015 New Jersey Tax Court ruling involving Morristown Medical Center that “the operation and function of nonprofit hospitals do not meet the criteria for property tax exemption” under state law. A 300-bed hospital subject to the fee would pay $328,500 a year.
As the director of the Division of Infectious Diseases at AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center in Galloway Township, Dr. Manish Trivedi is someone who has been studying and treating infectious diseases for more than a decade.
And even Trivedi admits the size and score of the COVID-19 pandemic was more than any infectious disease expert could have expected to see in their lifetime.
“When you’re a kid just studying in this field, you’re trying to prepare for some of these unpredictable moments, but nothing to this kind of degree,” he said. “You read about pandemics, but you never think it’s going to touch the world with the speed at which this virus traveled.”
