AI Summary
This bill, titled "Uterine Fibroid Research Database," proposes to amend Florida Statute 381.9312, which establishes a research database for uterine fibroids, a common non-cancerous growth in the uterus. The key change is the removal of a prohibition that prevented the inclusion of personal identifying information of women diagnosed with or treated for uterine fibroids in this database. This means that the database could now potentially store information that directly identifies individuals, which is a significant shift from its previous restriction. The bill also specifies that it will only become effective if another related bill, HB 1515, or similar legislation, is enacted during the same legislative session, providing a contingent effective date.
