The bill proposes the repeal of Arkansas Code Title 17, Chapter 98, which pertains to the registration of disease intervention specialists. This repeal eliminates all provisions related to the registration process, qualifications, training, and penalties associated with practicing as a disease intervention specialist. The specific sections being removed include definitions, exemptions, unlawful practices, and the administration of the registration process by the State Board of Health.

By repealing this chapter, the bill effectively removes the regulatory framework that governed the profession of disease intervention specialists in Arkansas. This change may impact the standards of practice and oversight for individuals in this field, as there will no longer be a formal registration process or requirements for education and training. The bill aims to streamline regulations by eliminating what is perceived as unnecessary bureaucracy surrounding the profession.
