SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Board of Health; certificate of birth; change of sex.

The bill provides that requirements related to obtaining a new certificate of birth to show a change of sex shall include a requirement that the person submit a form furnished by the State Registrar and completed by a health care provider from whom the person has received treatment stating that the person has undergone clinically appropriate treatment for gender transition but shall not include a requirement for evidence or documentation of any medical procedure. This bill is identical to SB 657.
