          *********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
             The following information is revised to reflect amendments 
                     adopted by the committee on August 11, 2016






          Bill  
          Summary:  This bill, beginning July 1, 2017, establishes a  
          return-to-play protocol for students who pass out or faint  
          during an athletic activity; requires coaches to complete a  
          sudden cardiac arrest training course; and requires the  
          California Department of Education (CDE) to post specified  
          information on its website related to sudden cardiac arrest.  


          Fiscal  
          Impact:  
           The CDE estimates one-time costs of $85,000 General Fund to  
            post required information on its website.

           Significant local costs for schools that elect to conduct  
            athletic activities to comply with the bill's requirements.   
            These activities are unlikely to be deemed a state  
            reimbursable mandate since the bill's requirements are based  
            upon a school's decision to conduct athletic activities.  See  
            staff comments.  



          Author  
          Amendments:  
           Establishes a definition for an "authorized person" to mean an  
            employee, volunteer, or contractor authorized to provide  
            health and medical services to pupil athletes.  


           Includes authorized persons in return-to-play protocols.
