Bill > HB06587

This bill requires the Commissioner of Public Health to conduct a comprehensive study on the medical waiver process for school vaccination requirements. A medical waiver is an official exemption that allows a student to be exempt from standard vaccination requirements for documented medical reasons. The commissioner will be expected to investigate the current use of these medical waivers and prepare a detailed report of the findings, which will be presented to the joint standing committee of the General Assembly responsible for public health matters. The study aims to provide insight into how medical waivers are being utilized within the school vaccination system, potentially to inform future policy decisions or identify any potential issues with the existing waiver process.
