Summary
The bill adds a provision that all records and personal identifying information submitted to Florida’s Parkinson’s Disease Registry are confidential and not subject to public‑records laws, except with the individual's written consent or limited research sharing. It protects the privacy of patients diagnosed or treated for Parkinson’s disease while still allowing epidemiological investigation and data‑sharing for medical research. The measure also includes a sunset review that would repeal the exemption after October 2, 2031 unless the legislature reenacts it.
