IN RE:
HB780 by Oliverson (Relating to the establishment of a bone marrow donor recruitment program.), As Engrossed

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Health and Safety Code to require the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) to establish a bone marrow donor recruitment program and develop informational materials in consultation with the federally authorized bone marrow donor registry. DSHS and the Department of Public Safety would be required to post the information on their websites, and appropriate health care facilities, blood banks, and driver's license offices could access and print the information for distribution. It is assumed that the provisions of the bill could be implemented within existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
