The bill amends the Public Health Code by adding a new section, 16149, which prohibits the Department or any board from creating or enforcing rules that require implicit bias training as a condition for obtaining or renewing a professional license or registration. This change aims to eliminate the requirement for implicit bias training in the licensing process for health professionals in Michigan.

Additionally, the bill rescinds a specific rule, R 338.7004, from the Michigan Administrative Code, further solidifying the removal of implicit bias training requirements from the licensing framework. This legislative action reflects a significant shift in the state's approach to professional training requirements in the health sector.
