Creates provisions relating to the credentialing of community health workers

This bill establishes a credentialing process for community health workers, who are frontline public health workers that act as trusted liaisons between communities and health services. Under the new rules, the Department of Health and Senior Services would create a system to verify the qualifications of these workers, allowing those with verified credentials to officially use that status in their professional communications. The legislation clarifies that individuals may continue to work as community health workers regardless of whether their credentials have been verified through this new process.
