HB1693 allows WIC clinic staff to perform hematological screening tests under physician supervision.
HB1693 amends existing law to allow staff at special supplemental nutrition programs for women, infants, and children (WIC) clinics to perform hematological screening tests. These tests, limited to heel-stick, toe-stick, or finger-stick sampling, must be conducted under the general supervision of a physician. This provision aims to enhance the efficiency and accessibility of screening services for WIC participants.
