This bill would prevent government entities in Kentucky from requiring anyone to take, receive, or disclose use of a medical product unless the product's manufacturer can be held legally liable for deaths or injuries it causes. It links government mandates involving medical products to the condition that standard legal accountability applies to those products. Who it may affect: Kentuckians subject to government-required medical product disclosures or mandates, and state and local government agencies.
