Transfer of funds and assets to authority.

Any municipality, county, or educational institution, any public hospital corporation and any other public agency, authority or body is hereby authorized to transfer and convey to any authority, with or without consideration:

(1) Any health care facilities and other properties, real or personal, and all funds and assets, tangible or intangible, relative to the ownership or operation of any such health care facilities that may be owned by such municipality, county, educational institution, public hospital corporation or other public agency, authority or body, as the case may be, or that may be jointly owned by any two or more thereof, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any certificates of need, assurances of need or other similar rights appertaining or ancillary thereto, irrespective of whether they have been exercised; and

(2) Any funds owned or controlled by such municipality, county, educational institution, public hospital corporation or other public agency, authority or body, as the case may be, or jointly by any two or more thereof, that may have been raised or allocated for any of the purposes for which such authority shall have been organized, whether or not such property is considered necessary for the conduct of the governmental or public functions (if any) of such municipality, county, educational institution, public hospital corporation or other public agency, authority or body.

Such transfer or conveyance shall be authorized by an ordinance or resolution duly adopted by the governing body of such municipality, county, or educational institution or by the board of directors or other governing body of such public hospital corporation or other public agency, authority or body, as the case may be, and it shall not be necessary, any provision of law to the contrary notwithstanding, to obtain any certificate of need, assurance of need or other similar permit for any such transfer or conveyance. In the event of the transfer of any health care facilities to the authority, any hospital tax proceeds, other tax proceeds and other revenues apportioned or allocated to or for the benefit of the prior owner or operator of such health care facilities or for patient care at such health care facilities shall thereafter be paid to the authority.
