Allows the independent contractor engaged by the department of education to create and maintain for school districts and community schools the student data verification codes required by division (D)(2) of section 3301.0714 of the Revised Code to upon request of the director of health, assign a data verification code to a child who is receiving services under division (A)(2) of section 3701.61 of the Revised Code. The contractor is to provide that code to the director, who will submit it to the public school in which the child will be enrolled for special education and related services.
