A bill to amend the Public Health Service Act to provide for grants to public and private nonprofit hospitals in imminent danger of closure for their provision of certain health care services.

Amends the Public Health Service Act to add a new title XIX: "Grants for Maintenance of Essential Health Services Provided by Hospitals in Imminent Danger of Closing." Authorizes the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare to make grants to public or private nonprofit hospitals serving predominantly health manpower shortage areas or medically underserved areas for their provision of certain essential health services, during a one-year period, to individuals, including undocumented aliens, who are not eligible for medical assistance under Medicaid nor covered by insurance and who are unable to pay for such service. Includes among the eligibility criteria for receipt of such grants that: (1) at least 60 percent of the hospital's outpatient and emergency room visits during the three-year period preceding such hospital's application have been by such individuals; (2) the hospital will be unable, without such a grant, to continue operations for more than six months from the date of application; and (3) the hospital enters into an agreement with the Secretary to carry out specified activities, including the elimination of excessive inpatient services.
