Sec. 5. Senate enrolled act 24 of the 1993 regular session of the general assembly shall be construed as a recodification of prior health and hospital law. If the literal meaning of senate enrolled act 24 of the 1993 regular session of the general assembly would result in a substantive change in the prior health and hospital law, the difference shall be construed as a typographical, spelling, or other clerical error that must be corrected by:
(1) inserting, deleting, or substituting words, punctuation, or other matters of style in senate enrolled act 24 of the 1993 regular session of the general assembly; and
(2) using any other rule of statutory construction;
as necessary or appropriate to apply senate enrolled act 24 of the 1993 regular session of the general assembly in a manner that does not result in a substantive change in the law. The principle of statutory construction that a court must apply the literal meaning of an act if the literal meaning of the act is unambiguous does not apply to senate enrolled act 24 of the 1993 regular session of the general assembly to the extent that senate enrolled act 24 of the 1993 regular session of the general assembly is not substantively identical to the prior health and hospital law.
