It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 13, 2022.

It crossed to the House on March 17, 2022 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 2022. The committee met in executive session on April 11, 2022 to vote on its recommendation.
