Health records, research, stats
MEDICAL RECORDS – Amends existing law to allow for disclosure of deidentified health records for research and statistical purposes.

RS31205 / S1351

The proposed legislation seeks to allow examination of Public Health Records, concentrating on death, health, and vaccine data for statistical analysis of vaccine-related outcomes. By promoting transparency and evidence-based decision making, the initiative aims to enhance public understanding of vaccine safety, contributing to a healthier society.

This Legislation causes no additional expenditure of funds at the state or local government, nor does it cause an increase or decrease in revenue for state or local government, as it will be established within a functioning system, therefore the legislation has no fiscal impact.
