An Act further clarifying the delivery of health care
This bill amends Chapter 260 of the Acts of 2020 to clarify the definition of a "health care provider" under existing state regulations. The change specifically excludes dentists from this definition, ensuring that rules intended for general health care providers do not apply to dental professionals. By making this distinction explicit, the legislation aims to prevent confusion regarding which providers must comply with specific health care delivery requirements. The update affects state health care regulations and the administrative oversight of medical and dental practitioners in Massachusetts.
