This bill, titled Dillon's Law , amends the Public Health Service Act to adjust criteria for children's asthma treatment grant programs. It establishes a special rule that permits states to consider trained individuals, even if they are not direct school employees, as "trained personnel" for the purpose of administering epinephrine in schools. This provision aims to grant preference to states that implement policies allowing such trained non-employees to provide emergency care. To qualify under this special rule, the individual must meet specific training requirements, and the State attorney general must reaffirm the State's certification, accounting for this expanded definition of personnel. Furthermore, the legislation updates the terminology from "auto-injectable epinephrine" to the more inclusive " epinephrine delivery systems ," thereby broadening the scope of covered medical devices.
