Requires sickle cell disease coursework or training for every medical student, medical resident and physician assistant student in the state

This bill requires all medical students, medical residents, and physician assistant students in the state to complete approved training on sickle cell disease awareness and treatment as part of their educational programs. The training must be documented and submitted to the health department, with guidelines developed in consultation with medical boards and health equity groups. The department must also report annually on the program's implementation and effectiveness to the governor and legislature. This policy directly affects healthcare education programs and aims to improve provider knowledge about sickle cell disease.
