An Act clarifying insurance liability for foster care providers

This bill establishes a commission to study insurance cost burdens faced by foster care providers in Massachusetts. The commission will gather data on insurance costs, barriers to coverage, and best practices from other states, then propose solutions by October 2025. It directly involves foster care providers contracted by the Department of Children and Families, as the study focuses on their challenges obtaining liability insurance.
