HF 3076 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Issuance of grants by the commissioner of health to support education and outreach for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome required, commissioner of health required to establish a ME/CFS program, issuance of grants to establish and improve access to social services for ME/CFS syndrome required, report required, and money appropriated.

HF 3076 requires Minnesota's Commissioner of Health to issue competitive grants supporting education and outreach about myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) for healthcare professionals, patients, and the public. It also mandates the Commissioner of Human Services to award grants establishing or improving social services access for ME/CFS patients, including counseling, care coordination, transportation, and practical support. Both grant programs must consult with the ME/CFS community - including patients, providers, and experts - during development. The bill appropriates funding and requires annual reports on program implementation. This legislation directly affects Minnesotans diagnosed with or experiencing ME/CFS symptoms, aiming to improve diagnosis, treatment access, and community resource navigation.
