The Story
It was introduced on January 2, 2002 and referred to the Senate Insurance committee. The committee held public hearings on February 6, 2002 and February 13, 2002. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2617). On February 14, 2002 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 14, 2002 and was referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 5, 2002. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 16–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 21, 2002. On March 21, 2002 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On April 25, 2002 the Senate adopted “Non Concur with House Am” on a roll call 12–9, on a motion by Sen. Burns.
