Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Senate Bill 501 now includes an appropriation of $20 million specifically for the city of Albuquerque to provide affordable proton therapy for cancer patients. This funding will be used to contract with an organization that specializes in this treatment. The changes are significant because they aim to enhance access to an important cancer treatment, potentially improving health outcomes for patients in the Albuquerque area. Any unused funds at the end of the fiscal year will return to the state's general fund, ensuring fiscal responsibility.
