Bill Summary
This bill requires the report used by medical examiners for investigations of infants zero to three years of age shall include a request for information regarding the date and type of the decedent’s last immunization. If the decedent received more than one immunization at the time of the last immunization, the information provided shall include all immunizations received. The bill requires the state medical examiner to adopt rules to comply with the bill.
AI Summary
This bill mandates that medical examiner reports for infant deaths between zero and three years old must now include specific information about the child's last immunization, detailing both the date and the type of vaccine received, and if multiple vaccines were given at that time, all of them must be recorded. The state medical examiner is responsible for creating the necessary rules, following the administrative procedures outlined in chapter 17A, to ensure this new requirement is met.
