HB2484 is a bill that amends Title 15, Chapter 1, Article 5 of the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding section 15-160.03, which pertains to school health care services. The bill requires that any school district or charter school providing routine health care services to students in a school health office must, upon request, provide parents or guardians with the health care credentials of the individuals delivering those services. The bill defines "health care credentials" as a license, certificate, permit, or registration to practice a health care profession under Title 32.
The bill also specifies that schools are not obligated to release personally identifiable information of health care providers, such as their address, salary, social security number, or telephone number. This legislation removes previous requirements for schools to post hyperlinks to webpages containing statements about the health care credentials of individuals providing routine student health care services or to include such information in the school's handbook. The bill becomes effective on the general effective date.
