What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires physicians who administer a prenatal or postnatal test for a congenital condition and receive a positive test result to ensure the parent or expectant parent of the child with the positive test result receives certain educational resources on the congenital condition made available by the Department of Health Services. The educational resources may be provided electronically, or, if the parent or expectant parent prefers, physically. The educational resources that DHS must make available on its Internet site must include certain current, evidence-based information about the congenital condition that has been reviewed by medical experts and national organizations specializing in the congenital condition specified in the bill and supportive information relevant to the congenital condition that includes contact information as specified in the bill. The bill requires DHS to review and, as appropriate, update the educational resources with information from new studies and research. The bill also requires DHS to provide the educational resources in, at least, English and in Spanish and Hmong translations.
