The bill amends the Public Health Code of Michigan by adding a new part, Part 212, which establishes regulations for freestanding hyperbaric oxygen therapy facilities. It introduces definitions for key terms such as "accreditation organization," "medical director," "qualified health professional," and "safety coordinator." These definitions clarify the roles and requirements for individuals and organizations involved in the operation and oversight of these facilities, ensuring adherence to safety and clinical guidelines as determined by the Department of Health.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that it will not take effect unless three specific bills from the 103rd Legislature are enacted into law. This conditional enactment underscores the interconnectedness of legislative measures related to public health and safety in Michigan.
Statutes affected: Senate Introduced Bill: 333.1101, 333.25211
