Maddy summaryHB 1816, "The Isbill Act," requires Tennessee law enforcement officers and correctional staff to undergo annual training on the criteria for involuntary hospitalization for mental health treatment. Specifically, it mandates the POST Commission and Tennessee Corrections Institute to create and adopt guidelines explaining when emergency and non-emergency involuntary admissions to inpatient care are appropriate. These guidelines will directly affect all law enforcement officers and correctional personnel in the state. The bill amends Tennessee Code Sections 33, 38, and 41 to implement these training requirements, effective July 1, 2027.

Maddy summaryHB 398 extends the time that Tennessee licensing boards have to respond to the Department of Health from 30 to 45 days when the department requests information about actions taken against prescribers with unusual controlled substance prescribing patterns. This includes prescribers identified as statistical outliers, top prescribers, or high-risk prescribers of controlled substances. The bill directly affects how quickly the Department of Health can monitor prescriber behavior and the timeline for licensing boards to provide updates. The amendment applies to multiple sections of Tennessee law related to health and professional licensing.
