Bill > SB00568

This bill proposes to establish a task force dedicated to developing a comprehensive state-wide plan to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE), a serious medical condition involving blood clots that typically form in the deep veins of the legs or lungs. The task force will be responsible for creating strategies to address and minimize the health impacts of this potentially life-threatening condition, which can lead to serious complications such as pulmonary embolism. By developing a targeted plan, the bill aims to improve patient outcomes, increase awareness, and potentially implement preventive measures and treatment protocols across the state to reduce the number of deaths and serious health complications caused by VTE.
