Summary

The bill rewrites rules for special‑needs trusts so they are no longer more restrictive than federal law, changes fingerprint‑background‑check requirements for a wide range of health‑care licensure applicants, and modifies eligibility and funding for child‑care grants, the bridge‑to‑independence program, and Medicaid services. It also renames Alzheimer’s‑related statutes, redirects drug‑distributor fees to the prescription‑drug monitoring program, and repeals several outdated health‑department provisions.
