The bill establishes a new section in Florida law, specifically section 395.3042, which mandates that health care facilities create a voluntary nonopioid advance directive form. This form will be accessible on the facility's website and will indicate that an individual does not wish to be administered or prescribed opioids. The directive must be filed in the individual's medical record and can be transferred between health care practitioners and facilities. Additionally, individuals have the right to revoke this directive at any time through written or oral statements.

The bill also provides legal protections for health care practitioners who may administer or prescribe opioids in a medical emergency without knowledge of the advance directive. These practitioners will be immune from civil or criminal liability unless their actions are deemed grossly negligent or willful misconduct. The term "medical emergency" is defined within the bill as an acute injury or illness that poses an immediate risk to an individual's life or long-term health. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
