Summary of Legislation: The bill urges the Legislative Council to assign the study of Indiana's trauma care
system to a study committee during the 2021 legislative interim.
Effective Date: Upon passage.
Explanation of State Expenditures: The Legislative Council could assign the study of Indiana’s trauma
care system to an existing interim study committee or establish a new interim study committee to study this
topic during the next interim. Interim study committees operate on budgets established by the Legislative
Council based on committee size. Legislative Council resolutions in the past have established budgets for
interim study committees in the amount of $13,500 per interim for committees with fewer than 16 members
and $17,500 for committees with 16 members or more. If the Legislative Council were to assign this topic
to an existing committee and the committee were to have any extra meetings to address this topic, there
would be additional expenditures for legislator per diem and travel reimbursement for the committee
members. Any additional expenditures must be within the committee’s budget.
