Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.

More newborn heart defect info for parents

The Department of Health must include information about babies born with congenital heart defects in its health education and outreach. The outreach includes treatment recommendations and other details the commissioner approves. This starts on the same date the 2024 leaflet chapter takes effect.

Maternity leaflets drop heart defect info

The law repeals the rule that hospitals must include congenital heart defect information in maternity leaflets. Patients may get less guaranteed written information from those leaflets. The law also delays that 2024 chapter’s start from 30 days to 90 days after it became law. Agencies can set needed rules before the 90-day start.
