AN ACT CONCERNING THE PREVENTION OF SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH IN STUDENTS.

SB 770 requires all students aged 12 and older to undergo an annual heart screening (electrocardiogram) as a condition for attending school. The bill mandates cost-subsidy programs with healthcare providers and nonprofits to cover screening costs for families regardless of income. It also directs the development of education campaigns to teach students, parents, and educators about cardiac health and recognizing warning signs. The law directly affects students in this age group and their families, focusing on preventive health measures through mandatory screenings and accessible support.
