§ 23-50.16:9. Operation of projects
A. The Authority may acquire, plan, design, construct, own, rent as landlord or tenant, operate, control, remove, renovate, enlarge, equip, and maintain, directly or through stock or nonstock corporations or other entities, any project as defined in this chapter. Such projects may be owned or operated by the Authority or other parties, or jointly by the Authority and other parties, and may be operated within or without the Commonwealth, so long as their operations are necessary or desirable to assist the Authority in carrying out its public purposes within the Commonwealth, and so long as any private benefit resulting to any such other private parties from any such project is merely incidental to the public benefit of such project.
B. In the operation of hospitals and other health-care and related facilities, the Authority may make and enforce all rules and regulations necessary or desirable for such operation, including those relating to the conditions under which the privilege of practicing may be available therein, the admission and treatment of patients, the procedures for determining the qualification of patients for indigent care or other programs, and the protection of patients and employees, provided that such rules and regulations shall not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex or national origin.
