House Bill No. introduced by a group of legislators aims to repeal the sunset provision related to the reporting and disclosure of violence against health care employees. Specifically, the bill repeals Section 4 of Chapter 516 from the Laws of 2023, which previously established a time limit on these reporting requirements.
The bill also includes a provision for an immediate effective date, meaning that the changes will take effect as soon as the bill is passed and approved. This legislative action seeks to ensure ongoing accountability and transparency regarding incidents of violence in health care settings, thereby enhancing the protection of health care employees.
