Establishes a blood clot and pulmonary embolism policy workgroup
This bill creates a blood clot and pulmonary embolism policy workgroup under the Commissioner of Health. The workgroup, composed of healthcare providers, patients, family members, advocates, and appointed officials, will study how blood clots and pulmonary embolisms affect New Yorkers, including data collection methods, care standards, and patient risks. It must develop recommendations for improving risk surveillance, patient awareness, and care guidelines in healthcare facilities, then submit a report within one year. The bill does not change current laws but establishes a process to inform future policy based on the workgroup's findings.
