SB 1525 - This act authorizes the Department of Health and Senior Services to contract with a Missouri affiliate of a national public health association or public health institute, or a similar or successor entity, in order to assist in carrying out its duties to promote the health and well-being of Missouri residents. Such contracts may include efforts to assist in the delivery of health services throughout the state and the administration of grant funds and related programs. The Department and the designated affiliate shall provide a report to the General Assembly as specified in the act.

This act is substantially similar to provisions in SB 841 (2026), SB 1037 (2026), HCS/SB 94 (2025), and SB 549 (2025).
