AI Summary
This bill aims to provide more focused care to individuals suffering from mental health and substance-related disabilities. It requires in-patient and out-patient mental health service providers in Massachusetts to provide physically separate accommodations for patients requiring non-substance abuse treatment and those requiring substance abuse treatment. This is intended to allow for more targeted and effective care for each group. The bill also directs the Department of Mental Health to promulgate regulations to implement this new requirement.
