Minnesota HF4463 expands conditional medical release eligibility to include geriatric and nonmedical release, and mandates a report on cost savings.

Minnesota HF4463 amends the state statutes to expand conditional medical release eligibility.

Nonmedical release is available for caregivers of incapacitated individuals. The commissioner must review applications within 30 days, and failure to fulfill caregiving responsibilities can lead to revocation.
