Summary
The House Health Policy Committee unanimously adopted substitutes for two bills in a dental specialist package (House Bills 45 93 and 45 94) and voted to report both bills to the Rules Committee with recommendation.
Chair VanderWald told the committee it would "be taking some votes starting with the dental specialist package." Representative Bonak moved to adopt the H-2 substitute for House Bill 45 93; the roll call recorded 14 yays, 0 nays and the H-2 substitute was adopted. Representative Bierlein then moved to report House Bill 45 93 as substituted with recommendation and refer the bill to Rules; the roll call was 14 yays, 0 nays and the bill was referred to Rules.
The committee next considered House Bill 45 94. Representative Saint Germain moved to adopt the H-1 substitute; the roll call recorded 14 yays, 0 nays and the substitute was adopted. Representative Thompson moved to report House Bill 45 94 as substituted to the floor with recommendation; roll call again was 14 yays, 0 nays and the motion prevailed.
At the outset the chair noted the adopted substitutes had changed the bills' effective dates; no substantive debate on the bills was recorded during this portion of the meeting.
