A 6134 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Allows physicians to report patients with epilepsy or related conditions to MVC.

This bill (A6134) changes New Jersey law to make it optional for physicians to report patients with persistent seizure disorders to the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC). Currently, physicians treating patients aged 16+ for recurrent seizures, unconsciousness, or motor coordination issues due to epilepsy must report within 24 hours; this bill replaces "shall" with "may," allowing physicians to choose whether to report. It directly affects physicians treating qualifying patients and the MVC, which would receive reports only if physicians opt to submit them. The change modifies the existing mandatory reporting requirement to a voluntary one without altering how the MVC handles such reports.
