The legislature recognizes the urgent need to provide health care consumers, third-party
payors, providers and health care planners with information regarding the trends in use and
cost of health care services in this state for improved decision-making. This is to be accom-
plished by compiling a uniform set of data and establishing mechanisms through which the
data will be disseminated.

(b) It is the intent of the legislature to require that the information necessary for a
review and comparison of utilization patterns, cost, quality and quantity of health care serv-
ices be supplied to the health care database by all providers of health care services and
third-party payors to the extent required by K.S.A. 1999 Supp. 65-6805 and amendments
thereto and this section and amendments thereto. The secretary of health and environment
at the direction of the health care data governing board shall specify by rule and regulation
the types of information which shall be submitted and the method of submission.

(c) The information is to be compiled and made available in a form prescribed by the
governing board to improve the decision-making processes regarding access, identified
needs, patterns of medical care, price and use of health care services.

Sec. 3. K.S.A. 1999 Supp. 65-6804 is hereby amended to read as follows: 65-6804. (a)
The secretary of health and environment shall administer the health care database. In ad-

with an organization experienced in health care data collection to collect the data from the
health care facilities as described in subsection (h) of K.S.A. 65-425 and amendments
thereto, build and maintain the database. The secretary of health and environment may
accept data submitted by associations or related organizations on behalf of health care pro-
viders by entering into binding agreements negotiated with such associations or related
organizations to obtain data required pursuant to this section.

(c) The secretary of health and environment shall adopt rules and regulations approved
by the board governing the acquisition, compilation and dissemination of all data collected
pursuant to this act. The rules and regulations shall provide at a minimum that:

(1) Measures have been taken to provide system security for all data and information
acquired under this act;

(2) data will be collected in the most efficient and cost-effective manner for both the
department and providers of data;

(3) procedures will be developed to assure the confidentiality of patient records. Patient
names, addresses and other personal identifiers will be omitted from the database;

(4) users may be charged for data preparation or information that is beyond the routine
data disseminated and that the secretary shall establish by the adoption of such rules and
regulations a system of fees for such data preparation or dissemination; and

(5) the secretary of health and environment will ensure that the health care database
will be kept current, accurate and accessible as prescribed by rules and regulations.

(d) Data and other information collected pursuant to this act shall be confidential, shall
be disseminated only for statistical purposes pursuant to rules and regulations adopted by
the secretary of health and environment and approved by the board and shall not be dis-
closed or made public in any manner which would identify individuals. A violation of this

sponsible person or persons for any damages to such individual caused by such violation.'';

for by the board of education of the school district in accordance with guidelines prescribed

teachers employed by the school district so as to provide a mentor teacher with an annual
stipend in an amount not to exceed $1,000. Such annual stipend shall be over and above

Sec. 7. K.S.A. 1999 Supp. 72-8902 is hereby amended to read as follows: 72-8902. (a)
~~(1) Except as authorized in provision (2),~~ A suspension may be for a short term not exceeding
~~five~~ 10 school days, or for an extended term not exceeding 90 school days. An expulsion
may be for a term not exceeding 186 school days. If a suspension or expulsion is for a term
exceeding the number of school days remaining in the school year, any remaining part of
the term of the suspension or expulsion may be applied to the succeeding school year.

~~(2) A short-term suspension may be imposed for not more than 10 school days if a~~
~~pupil: (A) Carries a weapon to school, onto school property, or to a school supervised activity;~~
~~(B) knowingly possesses or uses illegal drugs or sells or solicits the sale of a controlled~~
~~substance while at school, on school property or at a school supervised activity; or (C) has~~
~~engaged in behavior which resulted in, or was substantially likely to have resulted in, injury~~
~~to the pupil or to others.~~

~~(3) For the purposes of this provision, the following definitions apply: (A) ``Controlled~~
~~substance'' means a drug or other substance identified under schedules I, II, III, IV, or V~~
~~in 21 U.S.C. 812(c); (B) ``illegal drug'' means a controlled substance but does not include~~
~~such a substance that is legally possessed or used under the supervision of a licensed health-~~
~~care professional or that is legally possessed or used under any other authority under any~~
~~federal or state law; and (C) ``weapon'' means a weapon, device, instrument, material, or~~
~~substance, animate or inanimate, that is used for, or is readily capable of, causing death or~~
~~serious bodily injury, except that such term does not include a pocket knife with a blade of~~
~~less than 21/2 inches in length.~~

(b) (1) Except as authorized in provision (2), no suspension for a short term shall be
imposed upon a pupil without giving the pupil notice of the charges and affording the pupil
an opportunity for a hearing thereon. The notice may be oral or written and the hearing
may be held immediately after the notice is given. The hearing may be conducted informally
but shall include the following procedural due process requirements: (A) The right of the
pupil to be present at the hearing; (B) the right of the pupil to be informed of the charges;
(C) the right of the pupil to be informed of the basis for the accusation; and (D) the right
of the pupil to make statements in defense or mitigation of the charges or accusations.
Refusal of a pupil to be present at the hearing will constitute a waiver of the pupil's oppor-
tunity for a hearing.

(2) A short-term suspension may be imposed upon a pupil forthwith, and without
affording the pupil a hearing if the presence of the pupil endangers other persons or property
or substantially disrupts, impedes or interferes with the operation of the school.

(c) A written notice of any short-term suspension and the reason therefor shall be given
to the pupil involved and to the pupil's parent or guardian within 24 hours after the sus-
pension has been imposed and, in the event the pupil has not been afforded a hearing prior
to any short-term suspension, an opportunity for an informal hearing shall be afforded the
pupil as soon thereafter as practicable but in no event later than 72 hours after such short-
term suspension has been imposed. Any notice of the imposition of a short-term suspension
that provides an opportunity for an informal hearing after such suspension has been imposed
shall state that failure of the pupil to attend the hearing will result in a waiver of the pupil's
opportunity for the hearing.

(d) No suspension for an extended term and no expulsion shall be imposed upon a
pupil until an opportunity for a formal hearing thereon is afforded the pupil. A written
notice of any proposal to suspend for an extended term or to expel from school, and the
charges upon which the proposal is based shall be given to the pupil proposed to be sus-
pended or expelled from school, and to the pupil's parent or guardian. Any notice of a
proposal to suspend for an extended term or to expel from school shall state the time, date
and place that the pupil will be afforded an opportunity for a formal hearing, and that failure
of the pupil and the pupil's parent or guardian to attend the hearing will result in a waiver
of the pupil's opportunity for the hearing. The hearing shall be held not later than 10 days
after the date of the notice. The notice shall be accompanied by a copy of this act and the
