<![CDATA[211.655 Legislative findings and statement of intent. The General Assembly hereby finds and declares that congenital anomalies, stillbirths, <br>and high risk conditions represent problems of significant health importance about which <br>too little is known; that conditions of this nature lead to severe mental anguish on the part <br>of parents and frequently to high medical care costs; and that a system to obtain more <br>information about these conditions could result in development and implementation of <br>preventive measures to decrease their incidence and prevalence in the future. Therefore, it <br>is the intent of the General Assembly to: <br>(1) Provide information on the incidence, prevalence, and trends of birth defects, stillbirths, and high risk conditions; (2) Provide information as to the possible causes of congenital anomalies, stillbirths, and high risk conditions; and (3) Develop prevention strategies to reduce the incidence of congenital anomalies, stillbirths, and high risk conditions and to reduce secondary complications <br>associated with high risk conditions. Effective: July 15, 1994 <br>History: Amended 1994 Ky. Acts ch. 405, sec. 76, effective July 15, 1994. </p>
