AI Summary

This bill seeks to amend Section 24A of Chapter 94C of the Massachusetts General Laws to include skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities in the definition of "hospital" for the purposes of that law. This would streamline the care provided to elderly individuals in skilled nursing homes, ensuring they have access to the same legal protections and requirements as those in traditional hospital settings.
