AI Summary

This bill requires primary care physicians (defined as doctors specializing in family practice, pediatrics, primary care internal medicine, or primary care obstetrics and gynecology) to display an informational notice in a clearly visible location near their payment area. The notice, designed by the state commissioner of health in conjunction with the secretary of state, will provide instructions for parents and guardians of infants and children on how to subscribe to the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission's email lists to receive product recall and safety notifications. The notice must be available in English and the six most frequently spoken languages in the state according to U.S. Census Bureau data, with the option to provide additional language versions based on the community's linguistic needs. The bill aims to help parents stay informed about potential product safety risks by making subscription information readily accessible during medical visits. The law will take effect 120 days after becoming official, with immediate authorization for the health commissioner to prepare necessary implementation rules and regulations.
