HOUSE BILL NO. 117 "An Act extending the termination date of the Board of Certified Direct-Entry Midwives; and providing for an effective date." 2:27:36 PM REPRESENTATIVE DAN ORTIZ, SPONSOR, introduced himself. CAROLINE HAMP, STAFF, REPRESENTATIVE DAN ORTIZ, introduced herself. Representative Ortiz stated that the bill renewed the Board of Certified Direct-Entry Midwives. KRIS CURTIS, LEGISLATIVE AUDITOR, ALASKA DIVISION OF LEGISLATIVE AUDIT, discussed the sunset audit of the board. She remarked that, overall, the audit concluded that the board served the public interest by holding meetings in accordance with state laws and by effectively certifying midwives. The board adopted regulatory changes to improved the profession, however it failed to pursue the statutory changes due to concerns over related costs. Additionally, the audit found that the peer review process was not effectively monitored. Co-Chair Bishop OPENED public testimony. Senator Wilson queried the percentage of mortality rates of children born to midwives. 2:35:37 PM BETHEL BELISLE, CHAIR, BOARD OF CERTIFIED MIDWIVES, ANCHORAGE (via teleconference), replied that there was less than the national standard of mortality and morbidity in the state at potentially less than one demise every few years. Senator Wilson recalled some concern about whether the board needed additional medical supervision. He wondered about those concerns. Ms. Belisle replied that the board was a standalone profession. She recalled that the statutory changes would allow for even more ability to be a standalone practice. She remarked that many practices in the recent year were working toward arrangements with local medical providers and hospital systems for better collaboration and accountability. Senator von Imhof remarked that the response to the recommendation about the board pursuing regulatory changes, the board changed the education requirement. She wondered whether the change in education had been in place, and whether there had been a change in behavior. Ms. Belisle replied that the change did not retroactively apply to the midwives. She remarked that it had increased accountability. Co-Chair Bishop CLOSED public testimony. 2:40:39 PM AT EASE 2:41:17 PM RECONVENED Co-Chair Bishop thanked Ms. Holtkamp (secretary) for her service and hoped that she would have a successful birth. HB 117 was HEARD and HELD in committee for further consideration.
