It was introduced on January 4, 2017 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 24, 2017. The committee met in executive session on February 22, 2017 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year.
