What This Bill Does
This bill amends provisions regarding a vaccination exemption form for required immunizations in the public education system.
Key Provisions
This bill:
- repeals a requirement to complete an online education module to access a vaccination exemption form;
- requires the Department of Health and Human Services to:
- provide an online vaccination exemption form; and
- ensure the transmission of a completed online vaccination exemption form to the relevant school or LEA; and
- makes technical changes.
Plain-Language Summary
AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Under current Utah law, parents who want to exempt their child from required school vaccinations must first complete an online education module about immunizations before accessing the exemption form. This bill eliminates that educational requirement and instead directs the Department of Health and Human Services to make the vaccination exemption form directly available online and to automatically send completed forms to the child's school.
