Public Health - Drug Manufacturer-Funded Disease Awareness Campaigns - Registration and Required Disclosure

Summary

The bill forces drug manufacturers and any patient advocacy organization that receives their funding to file a registration with the Maryland Department of Health before launching a disease‑awareness effort. Campaign materials must clearly state the specific drug or device being marketed for the condition featured. This aims to increase transparency for the public about commercial influences behind health information.
