| 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. |
