MINOR

The bill was amended to change the requirements for developing educational materials regarding narcolepsy and sleep disorders. The amendment shifts the approach from a mandatory consultation with specific government and healthcare groups to a more flexible process that allows for consultation based on 'informed best practices.' This change reduces the administrative burden on the state department while maintaining the goal of creating effective educational resources.

Scope change

The scope of the bill's operational requirements was narrowed by removing mandatory consultation obligations, making the development of educational materials more flexible.

REQUIREMENT

Changed the requirement for developing educational materials from a mandatory consultation with specific agencies (Office of Mental Health, Department of Transportation) and groups to a flexible approach based on 'informed best practices'.

Removed the explicit mandate that educational materials must be developed in consultation with the Department of Transportation and relevant healthcare provider groups, replacing it with a directive to follow best practices.
