SUMMARY

 
This resolve establishes the Commission to Study Access to
Prescription Medication for Persons with Mental Illness. The
commission is directed to assess the limitations to access to
prescription medication presented by the availability of treating
psychiatrists in various counties in the State, whether
medication is being prescribed in situations in which other
mental illness interventions might be more appropriate, and
whether prescriptive authority for psychotropic drugs should be
extended to other health care professionals.
