Section 36-1-14.2-1 - Authorization to disburse funds; use; liability

A state or local governmental unit is authorized to disburse funds to a medical clinic or health care facility that provides health care to individuals without compensation. Funding obtained under this section must be used by the clinic or facility to purchase professional liability insurance to provide the clinic or facility with:

(1) medical malpractice protection; and
(2) compensation for required surcharges;

under IC 34-18. However, the disbursement of funds by a state or local governmental unit does not create any liability for that unit as a result of any acts or omissions of the medical clinic or health care facility that receives the funds.
