The bill amends section 381.9312 of the Florida Statutes to establish a public records exemption for certain records and personal identifying information related to women diagnosed with or treated for uterine fibroids. Specifically, it inserts a new subsection that declares all such records submitted to the Department of Health as confidential and exempt from public records requirements under s. 119.07(1) and s. 24(a), Article I of the State Constitution. This exemption is subject to the Open Government Sunset Review Act and will be repealed on October 2, 2031, unless the Legislature reenacts it.

Additionally, the bill includes a statement of public necessity, emphasizing the importance of protecting the privacy of women involved in the uterine fibroid research database. It argues that without this confidentiality, the Department of Health would struggle to effectively implement the database, as the disclosure of personal medical information could violate federal privacy laws, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
