House Bill 22-1157, Concerning the Utilization of Demographic Health Data by the Department of Public Health and Environment to Address Health Inequities, requires the collection of public health information concerning race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation and gender identity, according to applicable state and federal data privacy laws, rules, regulations and federal contracts.
HB 22-1157 supports the efforts of SB 21-181 that directs the department to conduct an assessment and publish a report concerning health disparities among priority populations every two years. HB 22-1157 requires the Health Equity Commission (HEC) to convene a data advisory working group and includes the selection of members for the working group. The Act further requires the state board of health to promulgate rules, which apply to all state and county, district, and municipal public health agencies, public health directors, and other persons required to collect and report data.
The Health Equity Commission's Data Advisory Work Group is soliciting public comment on drafts of Disability questions, Racial and Ethnicity questions and Sexual Orientation Gender Identity questions as part of House Bill 22-1157.
