HRS §336-3
Who counts as a Hawaii resident
This section defines who is a Hawaii resident for this part of the law. You must have lived here continuously for one year and not have lived in another state for at least one year after that. Time in a public institution or on parole does not count. For a minor patient, the parents' residence decides it.
