        Amends the AIDS Confidentiality Act.  With respect to  provisions      
   (i)  exempting  health  care  providers,  health  facility  employees,      
   firefighters,  and  EMTs  from requirement of informed consent by test      
   subject and (ii) authorizing disclosure of test results to health care      
   providers, health facility  employees,  firefighters,  EMTs,  and  law      
   enforcement officers:  eliminates requirement that a physician, in his      
   medical  judgment, determine that a skin or mucous membrane contact is      
   of a nature that may transmit  HIV.   Authorizes  disclosure  of  test      
   results  to a referring, treating, or consulting physician of the test      
   subject.  Provides that no civil or criminal liability under  the  Act      
   shall  be  imposed  for  disclosure  of  test results to a health care      
   provider by another health care provider acting in good faith.
