Bill Summary
A bill to amend 2012 PA 176, entitled"Mozelle senior or vulnerable adult medical alert act,"by amending the title and section 5 (MCL 28.715).
AI Summary
This bill amends the Mozelle Senior or Vulnerable Adult Medical Alert Act to enhance the process for reporting and disseminating information about missing seniors or vulnerable adults. Under the revised law, law enforcement agencies are required to forward information about a missing senior or vulnerable adult to various agencies, including local law enforcement where the person resides or was last seen, and broadcasters in the potential search area. The bill introduces a new provision for a missing senior or vulnerable adult medical alert system, to be established and maintained by the Department of State Police. This system will use the existing wireless emergency medical alert system to rapidly disseminate information about missing individuals to wireless devices. After completing a missing person report, law enforcement must notify the Department of State Police and request a medical alert be issued, but only in accordance with the department's established policies. The goal of these changes is to improve the speed and effectiveness of locating missing seniors and vulnerable adults by leveraging technology and coordinated communication between law enforcement agencies and media outlets.
