Extending Spinal & Related Medicine Program

Joint Budget Committee. There is a pilot program for complementary and alternative medicine for disabled people. The bill changes the name of the program to the "complementary and integrative medicine program". The bill extends the program and clarifies that the program covers persons with a primary condition of multiple sclerosis, a brain injury, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, or cerebral palsy, when one of these diagnoses directly results in a total inability for independent ambulation.
