Prompted by the deaths of several out-of-state women, Florida lawmakers have passed legislation designed to tighten regulations on the state's booming low-cost cosmetic surgery industry.

The bill was unanimously approved in the House on Wednesday after previously passing in the Senate. The bill heads to Gov. Ron DeSantis next for approval.

Proposed by Miami-area Sen. Anitere Flores and Rep. Anthony Rodriguez, the legislation would require facilities and doctors to demonstrate financial responsibility to pay out claims when they are deemed at fault for the serious injury or death of a patient. The bill also would permit officials to suspend or place five-year bans on bad actors who fail to comply with the rule changes.
