This bill proposes an amendment to the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a new section, 36-423.01, which mandates that social workers employed by outpatient treatment centers providing dialysis services must document patient progress in their medical records. This documentation is required to occur no more frequently than quarterly.

The current statutes remain unchanged, with no deletions from existing law. The new requirement for social workers to document patient progress represents an insertion aimed at enhancing the oversight and continuity of care for patients receiving dialysis services.
