PAG LIN 1 1 Section 1. Section 144.13, subsection 1, paragraph d, Code 1 2 1995, is amended to read as follows: 1 3 d.In the case of a child born out of wedlock, the1 4certificate shall be filed directly with the state registrar.1 5On a monthly basis, theThe state registrarshallmay transmit 1 6 to the appropriatecountylocal boards of healthsuch1 7 information from birth certificates for the sole purpose of 1 8 identifying those children in need ofinoculations1 9 immunizations. 1 10 Sec. 2. Section 152D.3, subsection 2, Code 1995, is 1 11 amended to read as follows: 1 12 2. An out-of-state applicant for an athletic trainer 1 13 license must fulfill the requirements of subsection 1, 1 14paragraphparagraphs "a"orand "b", and submit proof of 1 15 active engagement as an athletic trainer in the other state. 1 16 EXPLANATION 1 17 Section 1 strikes the separate process by which out-of- 1 18 wedlock birth certificates are filed directly to the 1 19 department of public health. Additionally, the department 1 20 would be allowed to provide information from all births to 1 21 local public health officials to support immunization 1 22 activities. 1 23 Section 2 establishes the same requirements for an athletic 1 24 trainer license for in-state and out-of-state licensee 1 25 candidates. 1 26 BACKGROUND STATEMENT 1 27 SUBMITTED BY THE AGENCY 1 28 This bill completes the statutory changes initiated during 1 29 the 1994 session in H.F. 2410 to eliminate the disparate 1 30 process by which birth certificates are filed based on marital 1 31 status. Currently, county registrars are not allowed to 1 32 accept and file birth certificates when the mother is unwed. 1 33 This requires that out-of-wedlock birth certificates must be 1 34 filed directly with the state registrar. This legislation 1 35 eliminates that practice and the stigma of filing out-of- 2 1 wedlock births, removes unnecessary encumbrances on the county 2 2 registrar, and allows the state registrar to share information 2 3 on all births with the local boards of health for the purposes 2 4 of promoting increased immunization rates of infants and 2 5 children. 2 6 The athletic trainer advisory board recommends a technical 2 7 correction which inadvertently establishes a different 2 8 standard of licensing candidates from out-of-state. Both in- 2 9 state and out-of-state licensees would be required to complete 2 10 approved training and pass an examination. 2 11 LSB 1241DP 76 2 12 cl/jj/8
