The Legislature finished its formal session. We are pleased to report that two bills that the Chapter has been supporting moved forward.
A mental health omnibus bill entitled "An Act Relative to Children's Mental Health" passed the House (it had passed the Senate several weeks ago) and it is anticipated that the bill would be enacted by both branches within the upcoming weeks.
Also passed was "A Bill to Promote Cost Containment, Transparency and Efficiency in the Delivery of Quality Health Care" that contained a Medical Home Demonstration Project.
The bill entitled "An Act Relative to Child Passenger Safety" was supported by the Chapter and recently passed.
