AI Summary

This bill amends existing Massachusetts law to require the state's Boards of Registration to consult with the Massachusetts Chiropractic Society when developing training programs for prescribers. The purpose is to ensure that these training programs include accurate information about chiropractic care as a non-opioid alternative, in an effort to inform prescribers about non-opioid options for patient care. This change is part of the state's broader efforts to address mental health, substance use, and recovery issues.
