Health care facilities: physicians and surgeons: terminations and revocation of staff privileges: data reporting by race and gender.

Senator Weber Pierson's legislation requires California health care facilities to report annual data on physician and medical resident staffing changes to the Civil Rights Department, categorized by race and gender. The reporting mandate encompasses terminations, staff privilege applications, approvals, suspensions, and revocations.

Under the measure, facilities must submit detailed reports by March 1 each year documenting the prior year's personnel changes. The Civil Rights Department must then aggregate and publish this data on its website by September 1, with facilities and individuals remaining anonymous. The published information will include the total number of physicians and medical residents in each staffing category, along with demographic breakdowns for those who provided race and gender information.

The bill establishes confidentiality protections for the raw facility-level data while making the aggregated statistics publicly accessible. Health care organizations may submit consolidated reports covering all required metrics. The legislation's findings indicate these provisions balance public transparency with privacy safeguards for individuals and institutions subject to the reporting requirements.
