Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health, to which was referred S.B. No. 31 entitled:

 

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO HEALTH,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose and intent of this measure is to amend the law relating to health.

 

     Prior to the hearing on this measure, your Committee posted and made available for public review a proposed S.D. 1, which amends this measure by deleting its contents and replacing it with language that:

 

     (1)  Amends the definition of "primary care providers" and "volunteer based supervised clinical training rotation" to improve accessibility for providers to receive income tax credits for acting as preceptors; and

 

     (2)  Revises the membership of the preceptor credit assurance committee to include the director of health and director of taxation.

 


     Your Committee has amended this measure by adopting the proposed S.D. 1.

 

     As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 31, as amended herein, and recommends that it be recommitted to your Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health, in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 31, S.D. 1, for further consideration.

 

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