Bill > S08575

This bill establishes a uterine fibroids awareness and education program within the Department of Public Health. The program will provide information to the public and healthcare providers on the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of uterine fibroids, with a focus on the elevated risk for minority women. The Department will distribute educational materials, maintain information on its website, and periodically review and update the provided information. The bill also requires the Department to report every three years on the implementation of the program and any recommendations for its improvement. The implementation of this program is contingent on available funding.
