JADEN’S LAW
Jaden’s Law, is designed to promote awareness among patients of their option to become bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donors. The Commissioner of Health and Senior Services is to prepare an online brochure for display on the Internet website of the Department of Health and Senior Services, based upon information derived from the National Marrow Donor Program, or NMDP, which may be downloaded by physicians for the purposes of this bill, and is to be designed to inform patients of the option to become a bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell, or PBSC, donor by registering with the NMDP and to answer common questions about bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell, or PBSC, donation. The brochure is to describe: the health benefits to the community from making a bone marrow or PBSC donation through the NMDP; how to register with the NMDP; the procedures for making a bone marrow or PBSC donation through the NMDP, including notice that there is no charge to the donor or the donor’s family for making the donation; the circumstances and procedures by which a patient may receive a transfusion of the patient’s previously donated blood; and any other aspects of bone marrow or PBSC donation that the commissioner deems appropriate for the purposes of the bill. A physician, as early as practicable in the physician’s therapeutic relationship with a patient and unless the physician reasonably believes that bone marrow or PBSC donation would threaten the health of the patient, is directed to provide a copy of the brochure prepared by the Commissioner of Health and Senior Services pursuant to this bill to every patient: who is known by the physician to be at least 18 years of age but no older than 60 years of age; and who the physician anticipates will be admitted to a hospital for an elective orthopedic procedure or treatment or otherwise believes is an appropriate candidate for bone marrow or PBSC donation; or for whom the physician otherwise believes bone marrow or PBSC donation is appropriate to the patient’s medical circumstances or is desired by the patient. The physician is further directed to offer to discuss the information contained in the brochure with the patient. The provisions of this bill are not to be construed to apply to a physician who is directly affiliated with a religious denomination that adheres to the tenet that bone marrow or PBSC transfer is contrary to the moral principles which the denomination considers to be an essential part of its beliefs and practices. The bill takes effect on the 90th day following enactment.
Jaden’s Law; requires physicians to advise certain patients of option to donate bone marrow.
