The bill amends the Public Health Code by adding Part 57A, which focuses on exposure to perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). It establishes definitions for various terms related to the pilot program, including "eligible research institution," "fund," "hospital reference laboratory," and "qualified county." The bill outlines criteria for "qualified study participants," specifically targeting individuals who lived in certain counties and were exposed to PFAS through well water or public water supplies exceeding health screening levels.

Additionally, the bill creates a PFAS pilot program fund to support research and testing related to PFAS exposure. It specifies that the enactment of this amendatory act is contingent upon the passage of related legislation, either Senate Bill No. ___ or House Bill No. 4500, from the 103rd Legislature. This legislative effort aims to address public health concerns associated with PFAS contamination in drinking water sources.
