It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 19, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 27, 2000 the House voted to pass it. It crossed to the Senate on February 3, 2000 and was referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 2000.
