Bill > HB2092

This bill mandates that the Tennessee Department of Health establish and conduct an outreach campaign to raise awareness about ongoing research into Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease, a group of inherited disorders that affect the peripheral nerves, which are the nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord. This campaign will utilize various methods such as print, radio, social media, and television public service announcements, advertisements, and posters, and will also include the development of a toll-free hotline or web-based system for individuals to report their diagnosis or contribute to research. The outreach efforts will cover areas like data portal development, community engagement, and program evaluation, and the entire campaign is scheduled to conclude on July 1, 2027, with the act taking effect on July 1, 2026.
