Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Communicable Disease Prevention Act. Provides that if a public safety official believes that he or she has been exposed to an infectious disease while performing his or her duties, other than those as an emergency services provider, which, in the opinion of a physician, could involve exposure to an infectious disease or condition, the public safety official or the provider agency may request the patient or individual who may have transmitted the infectious disease to consent to having the necessary diagnostic blood tests performed.
