SB 893 - This act allows the Department of Health in association with local health agencies to assess the potential for transmission of foodborne disease from contaminated food originating from retail food establishments. If the Department of Health determines that action is needed, public announcements will be made and clinics opened to administer dosages against the spread of disease. The establishment responsible for the outbreak shall reimburse the Department of Health for the costs of the clinic and of the immune globulin dosages. Reimbursements will not exceed one-half of the total cost of the clinic or a maximum of $1000.
