Chronic disease registry.

HB 1097 updates the state's chronic disease registry to include Parkinson's disease by adding it to the legal definition of "chronic disease" under the registry program. This change directly affects individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, as their condition will now be tracked in the state's health data system. The bill modifies the registry's scope through a definitional update, without creating new programs or funding. It ensures Parkinson's disease is included in existing data collection efforts for chronic illness tracking.
