appropriation; mass casualty incident preparedness

SB 1390 appropriates $700,000 from Arizona's health services lottery fund for fiscal year 2026-2027 to support mass casualty incident preparedness. The funds will be distributed to a nonprofit organization in Arizona that previously received federal hospital preparedness funding through the Department of Health Services and focuses on coordinating emergency readiness across all community sectors. This bill directly affects eligible nonprofits with existing federal support for hospital preparedness, enabling them to maintain statewide coordination for mass casualty incidents. It does not create new policies but allocates existing lottery funds to strengthen emergency response planning. The bill is currently in early Senate stages with no further actions recorded.
