Introduced Text

Massachusetts H1412 aims to improve access to post-acute services by enhancing care management and community resources.

Massachusetts H1412 focuses on improving access to post-acute services by assigning complex care case managers to each of the state's five EMS regions to assist hospitals with patient discharges. It establishes a regional pilot program to increase nursing care staff and best practices for treating Alzheimer’s and dementia patients. The bill also creates an Office of Adult Guardianship and Conservatorship Oversight within skilled nursing facilities to improve care and foster careers in long-term care.
