HB2772

Arizona HB2772 allows for medical directives to be included on driver's licenses and nonoperating identification licenses.

Arizona HB2772 amends existing statutes to allow individuals to indicate on their driver's licenses and nonoperating identification licenses that they have a prehospital medical care directive. This directive can specify the withholding of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the event of cardiac or respiratory arrest. The directive can be indicated by an orange symbol on the license and must be accompanied by a signed statement from a physician or registered nurse practitioner. The bill also provides immunity from liability for those who rely on the directive in good faith.
