Public health: Body Brokering and Patient Referral Integrity Act.

Summary

The bill makes it illegal for anyone to pay, receive, or arrange any kind of commission, bonus, or other reward to steer patients into residential treatment homes for alcohol, drug or behavioral health recovery. It also bars anyone from helping or advising in such schemes. Violations are treated as misdemeanors and the state will not reimburse local agencies for costs related to enforcing the new rule.
