Plain-language summary

Beta

This bill would make alpha-gal syndrome a reportable condition in Kentucky, meaning labs would be required to notify the state Department for Public Health within 5 days of a confirmed positive test. The department would then track cases each year and share that data with the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This is intended to improve public health monitoring of the condition across the state. Who it may affect: Kentuckians diagnosed with alpha-gal syndrome, medical laboratories, and health care professionals who order or process related tests.
