Committee schedules working session to refine H.B. 550 language after DOC briefing
Following the DOC and Wellpath briefing on H.B. 550, the House Corrections and Institutions Committee did not take a vote but directed staff to gather materials and proposed language changes.

The committee chair asked DOC and providers to share notes and documents and proposed a two-hour working session early next week, with legal counsel present, to work through sponsor-recommended language and technical edits. Committee staff indicated they would coordinate scheduling and circulate materials to members before that session.

No formal votes or amendments were adopted at the hearing; the working session is intended to produce revised bill language for a subsequent committee meeting.
