Pennsylvania Senate passes cap on punitive damages for care facilities
The state Senate approved Senate Bill 747 by a 40 to 9 vote to cap punitive damages at 250 percent of compensatory damages in cases against personal care homes, assisted living facilities, and long term care nursing facilities. The bill, spearheaded by Sen. Elder Vogel, requires the insurance commissioner to review past ten years of punitive awards in health care cases. The measure responds to Florida ads targeting Pennsylvania facilities and seeks to curb frivolous lawsuits draining state resources.
