    * Subsequent to a request from the California Assembly Committee on Health to analyze AB 547, the bill was amended and no longer concerns ovarian cancer screening. The version of the bill analyzed and included here was the legislation's original language.

    ** Subsequent to a request from the California Senate Insurance Committee to analyze SB 101, the bill was reintroduced as SB 1192 using the same language.

    *** The State Legislature sent CHBRP a request to analyze SB 1522 because it contains a benefit mandate provision. However, the bill does not include specific information on the mandated benefits to conduct a typical CHBRP analysis of the medical effectiveness, cost and public health impact of the proposed legislation. Therefore, CHBRP will be providing a memorandum outlining issues relevant to SB 1522, for the Legislature's consideration. The memorandum will consider the version of SB 1522 as amended on April 17, 2008.
