A 1155 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes State Parkinson's disease registry.

New Jersey's Bill A1155 establishes a statewide Parkinson's disease registry to track the incidence and prevalence of Parkinson's disease and related conditions (Parkinsonisms) across the state. Health care providers must report diagnosed cases to the registry, including diagnostic details, treatment, and survival data, while allowing patients to opt out in writing. The registry collects only necessary health information, removes personal identifiers through coding, and strictly protects confidentiality - preventing disclosure in legal proceedings or for unauthorized uses. This data will support research, public health planning, and potentially improve care for those affected, with all reporting requirements applying to cases diagnosed both before and after the bill's effective date.
