Bill > S774

This bill seeks to amend several sections of chapter 258 of the acts of 2014 by consistently replacing the number "14" with "30" across multiple sections. While the specific context is not fully detailed in the provided XML, the bill title and government summary suggest this is related to requiring insurance providers to cover a minimum of 30 days for in-patient substance abuse treatment. The bill systematically updates six different sections of the law, changing a previous 14-day requirement to a 30-day requirement. This change would effectively mandate that insurance providers extend coverage for substance abuse treatment from 14 days to 30 days, potentially giving patients longer access to critical healthcare services for addressing substance use disorders. The bill appears to be a straightforward legislative adjustment aimed at improving healthcare coverage and support for individuals seeking treatment for substance abuse.
