SB 1047: Neurodegenerative disease registry program.

This bill would require the state to establish a system for collecting information about frontotemporal degeneration (ftd), a type of neurodegenerative disease. The system would determine the incidence and prevalence of ftd. All healthcare providers diagnosing or treating patients with ftd would be required to report cases to the state. The state would also be required to designate other types of dementias as neurodegenerative diseases. The requirements would extend until January 1, 2032.
