Bill Summary
An act to amend Section 103885 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to cancer.
AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law regarding the Ken Maddy California Cancer Registry, a statewide system for collecting cancer incidence information. The bill requires the Director of Public Health to maintain the existing statewide and regional infrastructure of the cancer reporting system, removing previous language about specific implementation dates. Instead of the original timeline, the director must now submit an implementation and funding schedule to the Legislature by January 1, 2027. The bill changes the language from allowing the department to "designate" regional cancer registries to requiring the department to "establish" these registries. Additionally, the bill mandates that in establishing the statewide system, the department must partner with California's regional cancer registries to maximize the use of available federal funds. These changes aim to ensure continued support and development of the cancer registry system, which collects and tracks cancer diagnosis and treatment information across the state, while providing flexibility in implementation and funding strategies.
