SB-276 and SB-714 (Pan): Immunization Exemptions

AVFCA Commentary:
Legislation Details
Bill Name: Immunizations: medical exemptions.
Bill Number: SB-276
Bill Author(s): Pan
Legislative Session / Year: 2019
State: California
AVFCA Position:
Bill Synopsis: SB 276 and Sb714 as written would put school vaccine medical exemptions under the scrutiny of a state bureaucrat, penalizing children and their doctors rather than creating a bill that would specifically target unscrupulous doctors. We estimate the cost of these bills to be in excess of $50 million in the first year and in excess of approximately $35 million in each subsequent year, with an additional approximately $650 million potential loss in school ADA and/or approximately $5 billion potential increased healthcare costs. All to go after an extremely small and unquantified number of “unscrupulous” doctors and to mitigate the 11 cases of measles in California children this year. There has to be a better, more cost effective way.
