Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2012

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce, to which was referred H.B. No. 2563 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE HAWAII IMMUNIZATION REGISTRY,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to authorize the Department of Health to allow limited health insurer access to the Hawaii Immunization Registry.

     Additionally, the measure authorizes the Hawaii Immunization Registry to store minimal demographic information for individuals who have elected to refuse inclusion in the registry.  

     The Department of Health, Hawaii Association of Health Plans, Hawaii Medical Service Association, AlohaCare, and a concerned individual supported the measure.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 2563 and recommends that it be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce,
