Introduced Text

Ohio SB414 addresses epilepsy, SUDEP, and disability identification.

Ohio SB414 mandates education and counseling for health care practitioners treating epilepsy patients about sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). It requires coroners to report SUDEP on death certificates and to registries. The bill also allows Medicaid coverage for medically necessary seizure detection devices. Additionally, it enables individuals with epilepsy to opt for an epilepsy designation on their driver's license or state ID and to enroll in a disability database. The bill repeals certain sections of the Revised Code related to driver's licenses and identification cards.
