An Act relative to cognitive rehabilitation for individuals with an acquired brain injury
This bill amends Massachusetts law to expand health insurance coverage for specific therapies addressing cognitive deficits caused by acquired brain injuries. It directly affects individuals suffering from conditions such as strokes or traumatic brain injuries by defining key treatment types like cognitive rehabilitation and neurobehavioral therapy.

Additionally, it includes provisions for community reintegration services aimed at helping patients safely return to work, school, and independent living.
