If this bill were to become law, it would amend current statutes by updating the deadline for the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) to provide a conspicuous link on its public website. The current deadline of February 1, 2022, would be changed to December 1, 2025. Additionally, the bill would expand the requirement to include both the Department of Health Services and AHCCCS in providing this information, ensuring that it is accessible in both English and Spanish.

The bill also specifies that the link must direct individuals to easily comprehensible information regarding support for pregnant women and adoption options, as outlined in the existing law. This includes details about public and private agencies that assist women during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as information on adoption agencies that are not affiliated with abortion providers. The changes aim to enhance the availability of resources for pregnant women while making technical adjustments to the existing legal language.
