Sunset law; Board of Home Medical Equipment continued until October 1, 2027

SB 102 extends the operation of Alabama's Board of Home Medical Equipment until October 1, 2027, under the state's Sunset Law.

The bill formally continues the board's existing authority without changes to its rules or responsibilities, as specified in Alabama Code sections 34-14C-1 through 34-14C-8. It requires no new regulations or funding but ensures the board remains active for future oversight of this licensing system.
