Tyler’s Law

Tyler’s Law requires hospitals and medical examiner/coroner offices to report child injury or death incidents linked to children’s products to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Hospitals must report within 7 days of determining a child’s death or serious injury involved a product, including details like the product code, child’s demographics, and incident circumstances. Medical examiners must similarly report child deaths associated with products, with non-compliance leading to loss of certain federal grants. The law applies to incidents occurring 180 days after enactment and defines key terms like "children’s product" using existing CPSC definitions.
