It was introduced on January 7, 1999 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 2, 1999. The committee held a work session on February 18, 1999. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 18, 1999 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 30, 1999 and was referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 20, 1999. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 22, 1999 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on April 29, 1999 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 5, 1999, making it Chapter 24 of the session laws. It took effect on July 4, 1999.
