Requires continuing education training on implicit bias for physicians
This bill requires licensed physicians in the state to complete two hours of continuing education training on implicit bias every two years. The training must cover how unconscious biases influence medical decisions and contribute to health disparities based on factors like race, gender, and socioeconomic status. Physicians must complete this specific training through courses approved by the state medical board to satisfy their continuing education requirements.
