MINOR
The bill was revised to change the new statute section number from 430.505 to 430.5016. The text was also edited to replace the specific 'Department of Elderly Affairs' with the generic term 'department' in several instances to improve consistency. Additionally, the list of required initiative resources was slightly refined to update references from 'recent progress' to 'recent developments' and to clarify that outreach should address 'health care provider' education rather than just 'talking to a professional'.
Scope change
The scope of the bill remains focused on establishing the Alzheimer's Disease Awareness Initiative, but the specific statutory citation and internal terminology were updated.
TECHNICAL

The new statute section number was changed from 430.505 to 430.5016.

References to the 'Department of Elderly Affairs' were changed to 'department' in several locations for consistency.

REQUIREMENT

The required content list was updated to use the phrase 'recent developments' instead of 'recent progress' and to specify 'health care provider' education.
