Plain-language change summary

The latest version of HB 97 has removed the provision that specified an effective date for the bill, which means it is now up to the legislature to determine when the law will take effect after it is passed. Additionally, the language clarifying that a patient must be present during drug administration by a physician assistant has been kept the same, ensuring the involvement of a licensed health care provider during the process. This change is significant as it impacts the timing and implementation and maintains standards for patient safety.
