House Bill 4500 establishes a grant program for a research institution to conduct a pilot program in Michigan. This program aims to assess the levels of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in the blood of qualified participants and study their health effects. A dedicated PFAS pilot program fund will be created to cover grants, blood testing, and the development of educational materials. The Department of Health will oversee the program, select the research institution, and submit reports to the legislature on the program's findings and recommendations.
