The sponsor's argument

Why Roxanne J. Persaud says this is needed

Most medical practices and providers store patient's credit card infor- mation in their records as a part of their personal identifiable infor- mation (PHI). This is sometimes an automatic action that the patient may or may not have authorized. This bill would mitigate issues with unauthorized transactions on a patient's credit card by ensuring the patient is aware of and has agreed to having their credit card information stored by their provider.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
