Requires any university facility that delivers health services to university students to offer meningitis vaccines. Effective July 1, 2000. FISCAL NOTE (Board of Higher Education) While it is not possible to predict the exact number of people who would choose to take the vaccination, it is possible to predict the costs related to a certain number of persons. Public universities report that the estimated cost of a single meningitis vaccination ranges from $60 to $85. If 10% of the 194,235 students enrolled in public universities in fall 1999 chose to take the vaccination and there was no required student co-payment, the cost to public universities would range between $1.2 and $1.7 million. HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 2. Requires the meningitis information to be provided to a university's incoming freshmen and transfer students (instead of to all of its students) and to be provided at the beginning of each semester (instead of each academic year).
