Assembly Member Patterson's proposal to examine alternative medical approaches would establish a specialized workgroup within the California Health and Human Services Agency focused on functional, hormonal, integrative, and metabolic health practices.
The workgroup would meet quarterly to evaluate the use and effectiveness of these medical approaches, with findings reported to both the Senate Health and Human Services Committee and the Assembly Health Committee. Under the California Health and Safety Code's new Division 110.5, CalHHS would oversee the workgroup's activities and ensure regular assessment of these health disciplines.
The measure builds upon CalHHS's existing oversight of health and human services programs by creating a formal structure to examine these medical approaches. While the bill requires no new appropriations, it mandates fiscal committee review to assess potential administrative costs associated with convening the workgroup and producing required reports.
