Bill Summary
Regarding the Pediatric Palliative Care Program
AI Summary
This bill amends Section 24K of Chapter 111 of the General Laws to make changes to the Pediatric Palliative Care Program. Specifically, it removes the language "subject to appropriation," increases the age limit for the program from 19 to 22, and removes the language stating that the program does not give rise to enforceable legal rights or entitlements, instead mandating that all eligible children have access to these services and requiring the department to report caseload information and spending projections quarterly to the House and Senate committees on ways and means.
