1 1 Amend Senate File 248 as follows:
1 2 #1. By striking page 14, line 31, through page 15,
1 3 line 10, and inserting the following:
1 4 " . When a care provider in the course of
1 5 providing care sustains a significant exposure on the
1 6 premises of a health care facility or while engaged in
1 7 rendering aid or providing transportation to an
1 8 individual in circumstances which lead to the
1 9 individual's presence at a health care facility, the
1 10 individual to whom the care provider was exposed is
1 11 deemed to consent to a test to be administered by the
1 12 health care facility upon the written request of the
1 13 exposed care provider for the express purpose of
1 14 determining the presence of HIV infection in that
1 15 individual. The sample and test results shall only be
1 16 identified by a number and no reports otherwise
1 17 required by this chapter shall be made which identify
1 18 the individual tested. However, if the test results
1 19 are positive, the health care facility shall notify
1 20 the individual tested and ensure performance of
1 21 counseling and reporting requirements of this chapter
1 22 in the same manner as for an individual from whom
1 23 actual consent was obtained."
