    The Enhancing SIMULATION Act
    March 17, 2009

    On February 4, 2009, Reps. Randy Forbes (R-VA) and Patrick Kennedy (D-RI) introduced H.R. 855, the “Enhancing SIMULATION (Safety in Medicine Utilizing Leading Advanced Simulation Technologies to Improve Outcomes Now) Act of 2009.” The bill would advance the use of medical simulation within the health care system. On March 17, 2009, Senator Harkin (D-IA) introduced a companion bill, S. 616, in the United States Senate. This is the first time the medical simulation bill was introduced in the Senate! The Senate version of the bill is identical to H.R. 855.
