Bill Summary

A bill to amend 1978 PA 368, entitled"Public health code,"by amending sections 16105 and 16106 (MCL 333.16105 and 333.16106), section 16105 as amended by 2002 PA 643 and section 16106 as amended by 2022 PA 80.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Michigan Public Health Code by modifying definitions related to health occupations and professions, with a key addition of defining "invasive bodily examination" as a pelvic, vaginal, rectal, or prostate examination. The bill makes several technical changes to existing definitions, such as updating language around health profession specialty field licenses and clarifying terminology. Specifically, it modifies Section 16105 by making minor grammatical edits to existing definitions of health occupations, health professions, and related terms, and updates Section 16106 by adding the new definition of invasive bodily examination and renumbering subsequent definitions. The bill also includes a tie bar provision, meaning it will only take effect if companion Senate Bill 475 is also enacted into law. These changes appear to be primarily technical in nature, aimed at improving the precision and clarity of definitions within the Public Health Code, with the new definition of invasive bodily examination potentially providing more specific legal language around certain medical examinations.
